With the recent happenings in the United States, the dangers of the privately owned Internet is more apparent than ever, and frankly, it's scary. And so I'd like to make a simple request to anyone who is reading this; Please use the Fediverse, just a little more.

I personally hate it when I'm stuck having to visit say, YouTube or Reddit to get information, or to entertain myself in quiet moments, and if you're reading this, the likely chance is you're the same.

All I want to ask of you is to just comment a few more times, press send on that post that you felt wasn't of enough substance to be worth anyone's time. We have such a small community compared to everywhere else, but what we do have in common is that, in the grand scheme of things, we are the early adopters. And if we take that to heart and make this space a little bigger, maybe it will be just big enough we won't have to visit walled gardens so often.

Thank you :)

is Loops out now? I was wondering when that'd come around.

It's been out for a while. And to quote Blaze

!loops@midwest.social could definitely benefit from some nice reposts!

There's only one person posting there, I think it's the mod. I'm sure they'd appreciate some support.

Never got very into short-form content, but I'll give it some consideration!

Me neither, but when I'm scrolling some videos look interesting.

Apparently the official app was released out of beta recently if I'm not mistaken.
