Great post.

But there’s something quietly beautiful about a place where people just… share what they know. No brand deals, no engagement metrics, no algorithm nudging you toward rage. Just someone who spent twenty years studying Arctic policy posting a thread at 2 AM because they think you should understand what’s happening. It’s the internet I was promised in 1996. It only took thirty years and the complete collapse of American journalism to get here.

@pcora A lot to think about there. Mastodon and MB are my safe spaces from ads, and people selling stuff. So much goodness there. The collapse of American journalism is a much deeper topic! I’ve been enjoying your daily pics!

@cliff538 yep. I have been rooting for bluesky, but when I stop to think about it, I can’t see a future there without ads.. people won’t pay for it… so it will suck
