Nah. Hawai’i. But I didn’t search the correct mileage before I posted. It’s half that. (But feels like 5k when I think about that lingonberry sauce.)

The nearest IKEA to me is about 5,000 2500 miles away. This picture makes me feel all of them.

Edit: I failed to search the actual mileage between my home and the nearest IKEA before posting.

TIL lol

Bluesky is still pretty centralized and venture-capital backed. There’s been discussions about monetization. It’s only a matter of time before it enshittifies.

I would be totally fine with that tbh. Though I wonder if we’ll ever get to the place where a Mastodon client somehow incorporates an algorithmic timeline for those who want that?

I feel like the majority of people I see quit Mastodon do so because the platform (and Federation in general) don’t coddle their egos. With no algorithm to game and ingratiate themselves on everyone’s timelines, they make a public exit and talk about how broken Mastodon is and offer their takes on what it needs to be. Which, unsurprisingly, sounds like a non-Elon-ed Twitter.

I love Mastodon. I love discovering new people and accounts by happenstance (and not spoon-feeding).
