Things are going pretty well, but I have started a project to get people here to abandon Meta corp, Google and TicToc so I have been busy with boring things:)
Good idea! Very necessary! Are you having any success? My friends here are all tethered to facebook. This is so dangerous for us all! Do you not think Hive presents some of the same dangers?
We are in the preparatory phase. Right now people seem to realise that it might have been a bad idea to let large corporations control your communication, so I guess we are getting peoples ears. We wouldn't have been able to get through just one year ago, but the state of the world is beginning to get through to people. Hive is decentralised, so no. There are things about crypto that you can criticise, but at least here as in the other decentralised social media the profiles you follow will appear in chronological order. I think that is the way things should be. No obscure editing.
If they are still avidly on FB or others, they probably do not realize this. Folks wanna think their thoughts are genuinely their own. By controlling communication, our thought is controlled. Our political leanings. Our moral fiber. It's horrible to think that we could be so easily swayed,but once you know that you have been manipulated, it's not horrible at all, just curious. At least for me it has been. I hope I can say I have wisened up some in this regard. I am not on any of those media spaces. They give me the heebie jeebies. I left FB when my friends turned on me in packs because I resisted the insane covid regulations.
I gotta pick some peaches. I am glad to hear you have been productively busy and not otherwise incommoded. (is that a word?)
Yes, exactly. Some days I wonder if we were meant for these large Forum Romanum types of communications. It often ends up in this.
Exactly. When I realized I was doing that, I got out. What a way to live!
Great initiative, Man. How are you going about the project? What is it called? Is there a way we can contribute?
