Given that today is #Thanksgiving in the US, I want to take some time to thank some of the people I appreciate here on the fediverse.
I’ll add more to the thread throughout the day, in no particular order.
@GeePawHill Thank you, for the constant reminders that it’s cool to thank people who matter to you. In these hard times more than ever, thank you for that. It matters.

@mekkaokereke @StillIRise1963 You both force me to face some really uncomfortable stuff about the industry I work in, and the country I live in.
Your posts sometimes make me angry, they make me uncomfortable.
Thank you for that, I need that. We need that if we’re ever going to learn to be better towards each other.
Please don’t ever stop.

@cwebber and @evan Thank you for ActivityPub! I can only
Imagine how hard you worked to make it happen, but you did it.
It gives me hope for our technological future, that people like you are working to advance our fabric of open, interconnected, standards.

@philip @evan Thank you! It was a lot of work but clearly a lot of work which was worth it in the end. It wasn't always clear it would be in the middle.
Also shout-outs to @tsyesika, @erincandescent, and @rhiaro who all worked very hard on the spec too and are listed as co-authors... not to mention all the other people who gave feedback or were part of the WG, etc :)
