I find it difficult to measure the extent of the dopiness of Larry Sanger's unilateral social media strike: https://larrysanger.org/2019/06/social-media-strike/
It will achieve nothing at all for the simple reason that not eating doughnuts for 48 hours is not the same as joining a gym.
The latter might result in you giving up doughnuts 29 days a month.
The former will see you back on the doughnuts in a couple of days feeling unnecessarily pleased with yourself because you have shown Dunkin' who's boss.
Aaaagh!
A question about customs & norms in the federverse: if I want to replace Instagram with photo-posts here, what tags should I use to tell people what I am up to, so that they can find me? For example is #instagram a thing? Or #photography - or what? Any suggestions appreciated!

@JPEG Today’s stupid question. I have just started using Mast, which is fab. I cannot figure out how to send a message. What do I do to dm someone?
@ben_dw Among other things I teach online media and we touch on Agile. I have a student writing an MA thesis on Agile project management right now: based on an Agile-based design project he is leading. Timely or what!!!
@ben_dw Thanks for the Agile notes. I will sit down and decipher them later today 🙂

Hi,
I have just joined, and I have just seen the message about having 1000 users. Hopefully I am the 1001 user which means that I am palindromic.
