ok, look. i don’t understand social media.

nearly every day, i wake up & post the same video(s) to the same 4-5 sites & the reactions are often so different! which is fine, but it really does make understanding feedback a more… complex task than i’d prefer 😅

the biggest lesson i’ve learned: you can’t please everyone, so don’t try. just create things that make YOU happy, & do your best to improve if it’s within your scope and ability.

the world will learn to love you, or it won’t! what does it matter?? 🫶🏼

@tracketpacer 100%. You can't please everyone. If you try, you'll please no-one.

That's exactly the philosophy I use for my blog.

I write posts that I know I personally would have enjoyed if I read them on someone else's blog. I don't try to write posts for everyone - I just try to find fellow nerds with broken senses of humour, and I try to make them happy. If other people also happen to enjoy my posts, then that's a bonus.

Pretty sure Masto would also blame Capitalism.
@tracketpacer So you're saying you DON’T currently use Linux?! Well, let me tell you the benefits of free software and…
@matt @tracketpacer I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

@tracketpacer Mastodon (tm) network sure does it’s thing! Wait until you’ll get onto Dark Fedi side of things :)

@tracketpacer

So good seeing your analysis explained per social network with their completely different looks & done for the right reasons to explain this and wotnot & in an easy to watch video even 👍 😃

I feel this needs a transcript. Can you provide a transcript though? In .SRT would be great. Kthx. /$narf 😆

@tracketpacer

positive vibes for making content 💗 )))

@tracketpacer I was *just* enjoying (and looping) your “small boy" Netgear video on Instagram.
@tracketpacer not gonna lie I giggled at the Linux thing, and I'm not even a technological person, just being on Mastodon is like... you can't escape Linux discourse😅

@tracketpacer This deaf person thanks you for the subtitles.

@vkc

@tracketpacer I just hope you keep posting. Love your content!
@tracketpacer You’re a treasure in any medium- keep it up!

@tracketpacer Have you tried making this video on Linux?

...I'm so sorry.

if I ever get to the point where I understand social media, something must have gone terribly wrong
