Very true, but I figured it can’t be that much more difficult than reading Robert Burton’s compendium “The Anatomy of Melancholy.” And that is true, I read that in the introduction of the copy I have, which is interesting. How do you feel about it? Apparently it is a very polarizing work.
why do that when those are there for free and hardly used? I guess it is better to have your own clamps, in case the particular hotel you might be staying at has different types of hangers that don’t have clamps.
I think it is because Bluesky is simpler and easier to understand, as well as more familiar to use than mastodon. My favorite streamer said he is reluctant to move to the fediverse because of how different it is and the learning curve it has to it. I’m also, like, EXTREMELY new here and understand but once you start to get used to it, its easy to see how the fediverse and this “New Social” wave is far superior; the only hard part is getting “normies” to try it long enough to build enough familiarity to see that.
Same here. I still try to use it once every day in support but I don’t like having such a low limit (or any limit at all, really) on how many characters I’m allowed to use for my posts or response. I am more of a macro-blogger as I tend to be very verbose; especially posting online. I do, however, think it is important to create accounts, use and donate to the project that is mastodon; as they are leading by example in this “New Social” era or movement we are all apart of. It would be a shame that something like this isn’t able to continue, let alone expand, because not enough people supported the project – even though such project is giving the people exactly what they wanted and asked for. Let’s all try to show our support behind such a bold and selfless decision.
I definitely had to read it again when I first saw it too; its a very weird but fantastic response that I’m going to start saying.
What a massive win; information should be free to consume.
Hello, new to the fediverse and to attempting to become a writer! I am mainly interested in philosophical writing and am interested in both philosophical short stories as well as axiomatic and essay writing as well. I hope to one day write my own compendium; inspired by Robert Burton’s “The Anatomy of Melancholy.” Any tips or resources would be greatly appreciated; and if not, I’d still love to connect!
Ah I see, I sort of like reading things I disagree with; even in fiction. (I am extremely picky with fiction.) I find it more interesting to argue with characters in my head or in journals and sometimes they might poke holes in my belief system that I have to think about in order to patch it up – if it can be. It seems to be more rewarding to read unlikable characters; do you agree?
