@aw "I was (this is embarrassing to admit) an active Twitter user for a long time. I don't feel good about how I acted and behaved on that platform, and in retrospect, I realize much of this is not about some personal moral flaw, but the way in which the platform drew certain traits out of me -- a tendency to be flippant, sarcastic, ironic, sanctimonious, sometimes cruel." :pilin: :pilin: ๐Ÿ˜ญ :pilin:

@aw One idea I've had for a while is to create a service that requires its own little client to read. That might serve as another way to signal that you aren't on the open web. You get some of that benefit with flounder just by being on Gemini.

@akkartik thatโ€™s interesting โ€” have you seen offpunk? It would be interesting to have a server that enforces a once a day pull of data too notabug.org/ploum/offpunk/

@aw Indeed! Though I was imagining some weirder interactions. Imagine being on a client and being able to tell that the author is present on the server working on a new blog post. Probably not a good idea ๐Ÿ˜‚
