   It makes me sad for the same reason it makes me sad that it's OK for folks to pressure me into using WhatsApp or Discord, but not for me to ask for folks to use Signal or Matrix. That it's OK for folks to tell me I need to use Word or Windows, but not for me to ask for patience with using LibreOffice on Linux. That I get made fun of for Zoom having bugs on Linux, or for suggesting Jitsi when we hit our hour- long limit.

     I'm sad that so many folks leaving Twitter are heading to Bluesky. It really feels like we've learned nothing about centralized corporate social media. (And yes, I consider it to be centralized as long as blocking bsky.app doesn't just take down a plurality of the network, but the whole bloody thing.)

     Part of what makes that as sad for me is that I know turns into people who will pressure me to leave the fediverse. That that kind of pressure is considered ok.
