uma janela de oportunidades que o Twitter tinha fechado. Voltar a poder usar flyspell e o diabo-aquático faz-me recordar outros tempos onde a presença online era mais genuína, aberta e colaborativa. Foi uma boa opção ter mudado para aqui. Obrigado Elon, beijos.
Já para não falar
no formato epistolar da estrutura dos toots que agora ganham um carácter muito próprio, discursivo muito num tom verborreico, eheh na falta de melhor termo, da hacker culture.

Paradoxalmente quanto maior for o mastodon.social menor o sucesso do sistema federado do Mastodon e quando ouvirem, ou lerem, dos influencers que é nos servidores grandes que está a diversidade e que é nesse que devem estar lembrem-se que em distribuições a distribuição normal não tem caudas pesadas, antes um voo de Levi que nos leva para maior diversidade.
Mas é bom ver as migrações do mastodon.social para o masto.pt
Fedora
Invisible cites - Italo Calvino
In the center of Fedora, that gray stone metropolis, stands a metal building with a crystal globe in every room. Looking into each globe, you see a blue city, the model of a different Fedora. These are the forms the city could have taken if, for one' reason or another, it had not become what we see today.

A Libertarian Document
Quote from Warren's (1841) Manifesto - A Libertarian Document
It seemed that the difference of opinion, tastes, and purposes increased just in proportion to the demand for conformity...
It appeared that it was nature's own inherent law of diversity that had conquered us... our 'united interests' were directly at war with the individualities of persons and circumstances and the instinct of self-preservation.
