Amazing how it's possible to take a sort of free-software-y idea like gnu-social and then all you have to do is make it nice and interesting and easy to use and everyone likes it.
@sil Isn't this true of anything that's made nice and interesting? ;)
@Euphoria yup! This is roughly the point I was attempting to underline :)
@sil Oh, and I can't believe I forgot to reiterate "easy to use" as that's key!
