  The early crypto skeptics deserve more credit.
  
  Not only did they call all of this, they did so in the face of constant shaming and harrassment. (Not to mention everyone pointing to the increasing value of their crypto wallets as evidence that they were wrong.)

  All this Twitter drama makes me really appreciate YouTube’s leadership team and the support they have for creators.
  
  It’s not a perfect platform, but it’s the best.

  It’s easy to feel smug about the crypto collapse, but honestly who could’ve predicted that an asset with no intrinsic value of any kind would eventually become worthless?

  Since it gets asked almost every time I post a screen recording or screenshot of it, here's a mini-thread detailing my terminal configuration.

  In summary:
  
  (1) Family time is limited—cherish it.
  
  (2) Friend time is limited—prioritize real ones.
  
  (3) Partner time is significant—never settle.
  
  (4) Children time is precious—be present.
  
  (5) Coworker time is significant—find energy.
  
  (6) Alone time is highest—love yourself.

  Reading about the tech stack undergirding most Mastodon/fediverse instances, and I am sadly not optimistic that there is a practical path to scale this past a small fraction of twitter's size in the medium term
  

  It's actually worse than that, the protocol itself needs some serious work to scale it up too.

  Has anyone else noticed their suggested tweets as well as ads on twitter have gotten significantly worse today?

  @aaronpk yeah, it's because legit advertisers are fleeing Twitter.
  

  I didn't expect the change to be so dramatic so fast
