@nitinkhanna I’m considering deleting my micro.blog account. Do you get value from your micro.blog?

@khurtwilliams In the scheme of my online life, I get very little value from M.B. But I will add that I've never, ever found value from general-focus social media; and blogging has over the years decreased in value for me as well. Micro.blog is also not the kind of community I readily engage with -- not for lack of effort or interesting people, but for structural/technological reasons. For purposes of finding like-minded people, I gravitate towards, and find vastly more value in, topic-based web forums and chat servers on Discord (a chat/voice app originally designed for video games but has more diverse groups there now).
I wrote a bit about my experience in my recent blog post, "A house of infinite rooms." v.hierofalco.net/2019/06/1...
I keep my M.B account because there are still good folk here and it's an interesting place to peer into every so often. But for more intentional, focused "online socializing", M.B doesn't fit with my needs, and I've gone elsewhere.
