    Guto pendas sub via nazopinto, kolektita de la peza, nebula vaporo de ĉiu spiro.

    Ne estas paranojo, se iu fakte sekvas vin.

  10. 🚀💥 WebAssembly: the "revolution" that promised to change the #web and ended up as a nostalgic echo of #overhyped #tech #dreams. Spoiler: it's still here, #lurking in the #shadows, waiting for someone to remember it exists. 🙄🔍

  13. Dear Friends of Politicians in #hiding and #lurking, ​:ablobcatpopcorn:​

    Living in
    #London, I AM INTERESTED in local non-binary #candidature. Who will be announced by #Wandsworth and #Richmond mega-council sometime today (31 May 2024)?

    I will not be told who to vote for but expect information on them and their policies. I will not be voting for anyone who can not answer some simple
    #questions, for example:

    - Which wars do you support?
    - Who would be your second and third choice if your party was not elected?
    ✔️
    - Who do you feel a vote for is most wasted on (that option might tempt me... wonder where Count
    #Binface is standing) 😆

    Just for context. I do not support any wars. AND every weasel politician supports the 'war on poverty'.
    My party has never been invited to party.

  14. Dear Friends on the #fringes,

    As we may know:

    #Smiling is a #superpower and laffing is for the cheerless
    - Don't be the
    #change in your pocket. #Empty!
    - Be as
    #wise as serpent/servants
    - Leap without
    #lurking
    - Men are

  15. @Mrfunkedude ok so here's a random idea.
    I recently got back into #IRC (the OG realtime chat platform.. also distributed/federated before it was c00l). I've started #lurking - for no other reason than to make lUrk Great again - in channel ##fediverse.lounge on Libera.Chat (network).

    We could start pushing that as casual n00b friendly Help You OUt Zone.

    Don't even need to install anything: libera.chat/guides/clients#con

    Yeah, it could be a matrix room I guess, I just don't know it as well.

  16. I admire people who have account on a platform for years and don't post or only boost content without saying anything personal. What is your superpower. I just can't keep my mouth shut. Even on the Internet. Even for one or two weeks. What is the secret #lurking #SocialMedia #internet #lurkers

  17. #Lurking, or passive observation, is a valuable form of #SocialMedia participation.

    The current changes at #Twitter / X and elsewhere reinforce #privilege, as not everyone can afford a subscription. Moreover, restrictions on reading and the unavailability of #free tools have further limited lurking.

    The future of #academic social media relies on platforms that prioritize and facilitate lurking as a central part of the #onlineCommunity.

  18. From what I have gathered in #lurking, it is also proper etiquette to introduce your #catsofmastadon very shortly after yourself. So I shall do exactly that in this thread.

  19. Suuuuuper simple basic #script to get rid of those nasty .DS_Store #files we always find #lurking around our #filesystem on #Linux because of #Windows :blobcatknife:

  20. Just realized I've been #lurking and not posting anything. I'm an observer. Sitting back and watching is what I do best.
