“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world.” --Marianne Williamson, "A Return to Love"

@gnu2 It is. They haven't confirmed that they'll be using ActivityPub. It's absolutely possible they'll use some snowflake protocol like Blue Sky did.

@matthewjones So, I use it for cooking, for cocktail recipes, for code, for research for work, and for gardening.

@uxmark @josephby I think that's all in.

@TryshHQ is that true? Does the data from my sessions inform the next generation of the model?

@BathysphereHat that's fair! I've used it for some research for work, for recipes, and for gardening, but most of the rest is just fucking around for me, too.

@timbray that's "or less". See #EvanPollFAQNever .

What's the principle?

If you want to say "never," reply "quarterly or less". See #EvanPollFAQNever .

@mav I think getting messages delivered is hard, yes.

@vesperto yes, you're cynical.

We all benefit when big companies support open standards.

@craigmaloney OK, but this post isn't about RSS or XMPP. It's about email.

@goatsarah there are some tricks to that!

@datn @mav ah, OK. I don't have access to the full report. You're right, the data in the full report might not support the conclusions in the summary.

AFAIK, it's the gold standard for email network statistics. I'd love to hear better stats from an open publication!

@arcade no, if it's not a strategy, it's not EEE.

@datn @mav also, I took "Email is growing faster than Gmail" out of the original post, because it's not central to the argument. Let me know what you find!
