Ah, gentoo + fedi user I guess.

@Gargron They're useful when joining Mastodon for the first time. I remember them being super useful when I first joined Mastodon but then they disappeared :(

Chatting on xmpp. The crypto all seems to work. All free software and no big tech companies in the middle.

I think this is the future.
I know I haven't posted about it in a while, but I still want to do something to #replacefacebook. Facebook is holding the online lives of my friends and family hostage, and I want to get them using platforms that don't hold them hostage.

Thinking about it, when I joined Twitter in 2008, I don't think there were follow recommendations. Nor have I ever used them since. There were no recommendations when I joined the fediverse. Perhaps I am overestimating the usefulness of that feature for bringing new people in.

I sure hope so because it's frustrating me.

@brainblasted I think people are just superstitious about follow bots.

Sometimes Haskell code reminds me the wheel from Stargate (film).

GTK+ programming with FRP in Haskell looks interesting.
