There is a certain kind of brain, that basically innately hyperlinks content in the head. Something about great memory and fast retrieval.

And people with such brains excel at writing web content (and probably are better than average at writing anything that's based on association of ideas).

And then the rest of us is stuck with knowledge management tools like #Roam or #Obsidian, trying to emulate the experience.

I thought the whole #fedi thing would be more fun, servers and instances like an archipelago, with a spread of island bobra and cultures. Different e ologies developing, #galapagos style.

In the end it’s just names next to nicks. Some sound interesting but thats it.

Am I missing something, dear #fediverse?
