2021-03-21T22:00:25Z	(#<vfcwflq https://twtxt.net/search?tag=vfcwflq>) @<lyxal https://twtxt.net/user/lyxal/twtxt.txt> @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> Thank you! I like it here already.
2021-03-21T22:43:38Z	(#<vfcwflq https://twtxt.net/search?tag=vfcwflq>) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> @<lyxal https://twtxt.net/user/lyxal/twtxt.txt> First of all because of minimalism and ease of use. Then I like to try something new. 
Well, the main reason why I'm here. Before that I lived in fediverse. But due to the blocking of Twitter by the Russian authorities, everyone began to move to fediverse and it became somewhat uncomfortable for me there. It's certainly cool that users find alternatives to twitter, but it also changes the manner of communication and becomes less friendly.
2021-03-22T14:55:57Z	I saw a video of James Burke speaking, and as an aside, he recalled Bill Gates' prediction of "640K ought to be enough for anybody. How funny it sounds now 😁
2021-03-23T14:50:56Z	@<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> (#<tlincba https://twtxt.net/search?tag=tlincba>) It's okay, no need to apologize. I am sympathetic to such situations and never complain about projects (especially cool ones like twtxt) that are kept on people's enthusiasm and at their own expense.
2021-03-23T15:59:24Z	(#<tlincba https://twtxt.net/search?tag=tlincba>) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> It's going to be awesome! By the way, I love looking at homelab photos, spend my free time at /r/homelab. Unfortunately, I can't afford to keep the equipment at home 😔
2021-03-24T11:05:02Z	You've seen what's going on - more than 900 FOSS supporters have already signed an [open letter](https://rms-open-letter.github.io) in favor of firing Stallman from the FSF board
2021-03-24T12:26:40Z	(#<gajnzya https://twtxt.net/search?tag=gajnzya>) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> Alas, no, I missed it. @jlj I think the hype will only grow, and it is unclear how this will be treated. Stallman is a controversial figure after all.
2021-03-24T12:29:58Z	@<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> (#<bp5gzgq https://twtxt.net/search?tag=bp5gzgq>) Yeah, it looks great in the screenshots. However, I can't install it, I only have f-droid installed ((
2021-03-24T20:24:19Z	(#<bp5gzgq https://twtxt.net/search?tag=bp5gzgq>) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> I wish I could help, but I am rather incompetent in this matter  😔

2021-07-01T11:10:55Z	Hi! It's been a long time since I've looked here.

Meanwhile, it's hot in Russia, with Moscow breaking a century-old temperature record. It's unbearable to work from home in this weather 🔥

2021-07-01T12:27:52Z	(#<i6dnlja https://twtxt.net/search?tag=i6dnlja>) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> Yes, this is abnormal weather. Usually summer is rainy.
2021-07-01T15:54:11Z	(#<i6dnlja https://twtxt.net/search?tag=i6dnlja>) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> There are 4 climate zones in Russia, and the values will vary everywhere. I live in the central part of the country, where the average summer temperature is 18 C.

2022-02-19T22:12:05Z	(#3ihsemq) Hi. Glad to welcome you here! 

And twtvk is beautiful 😀
2022-02-20T15:14:40Z	(#nswpp4a) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> Hi 😊 Good to see you again! In general things are good, a little tired of the covid restrictions and I am insanely upset by the global chip shortage because of this good computer hardware becomes less available + the ruble exchange rate is storming.

How about you, what's new? I periodically glance over here at twtxt )
2022-02-22T20:42:12Z	(#nswpp4a) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> Have a fun vacation, have a great time!
2022-02-23T15:23:14Z	(#nswpp4a) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> Your view from the window is not so gloomy, we have snowfall at all 🥶  ![](https://twtxt.net/media/BZioXS6DFiqiM5xzQpuau3.png)
2022-04-02T20:48:44Z	(#3pqsloa) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> I fell in love with cryptocurrencies after I found myself cut off from the global financial system, and foreign exchange transactions within the country were frozen, i.e. I can neither buy dollars, nor send them, nor pay for servers abroad. In such a situation, one no longer thinks about the inefficient energy consumption of blockchain 😄 Although I agree that it is inefficient in this regard. But there are no alternatives )

> If you turn “social media” into this dopamine drive cesspool full of likes, boosts, reshares and so forth, you basically end up abusing the worst parts of humanity.

👍 There is such a problem. And for some reason it's not being addressed at all. The Pinafore web client for Mastodon, for example, has settings designed to reduce the addictive or disturbing aspects of social media. They can hide the number of subscribers, reposts, or hide notifications.

It certainly doesn't solve the problem, but at least someone paid attention to it.
2022-07-24T09:41:46Z	(#lxe2kdq) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> That’s what I like about Yarn.social - minimalism at its best 🥰
2022-11-20T20:02:00Z	I feel like going away... to the woods! 🌲
2022-11-23T19:42:06Z	(#oq2iraq) @<justamoment https://twtxt.net/user/justamoment/twtxt.txt> Anywhere, as long as it's away from the city and the office :D
2023-04-11T21:31:45Z	I watched the movie "Tetris". At first I thought it would be a "Red Heat" kind of movie 😅 But surprisingly it turned out to be very good!
2023-05-01T11:11:03Z	The discovery of the year is [sxmo](https://sxmo.org), he's damn good! It's hard to believe that a smartphone can do that. It seems crazy at first glance, but it's convenient.
2023-12-03T19:23:05Z	I love Sundays. A long-awaited vacation 🥳 Right now I'm sitting under a blanket watching Dexter.
