Cory Dransfeldt says social media is broken. He may be right.

Post on Mastodon, post on your own site, post on Bluesky, skip the algorithmic soup that is Threads (or — if you do — enable federation so I can follow you absent the noise) and please, please skip posting on the platform owned by the world’s dullest edgelord.

I invariably chafe at the thought and reality of participating in group chats but, if you don’t, they’re a compelling choice.

Want to follow news? Pick up an RSS reader and skip algorithmic noise.

Wherever you land you’ll recognize people you know and you’ll recognize them because you’ve had a meaningful interactions with them.

Me? I’m on Mastodon, I have my site (that I spend entirely too much time developing), a book and a nice corner to read in.

Find your space and don’t feel obligated to participate in any of it.

“Find your space and don’t feel obligated to participate in any of it.” is some excellent advice.
