i love that we went from "zero trust" as a fundamental buzzword to "trust autonomous nondeterministic agents everywhere in your stack"

@neurovagrant Trust No one was on seemingly every poster.

What happened?!

@jackryder Social media took off some 20 years ago.
You can't make money off of faceless entities as an ad company after all.

@tecHunt Social media was a mistake.

Can we go back to IRC, web-rings, and ICQ? 👉 👈 

@jackryder https://libera.chat (Freenode successor) is still going strong. If you don't mind CLI, I recommend Weechat (Not to be confused with the Chinese everything app Wechat). Otherwise, Hexchat is the go to IRC client for GUI users.
It's the only other "social media" I use next to Mastodon.
Libera Chat

A next-generation IRC network for FOSS projects collaboration!
