@haubles Is that pointing out a problem or suggesting a solution? :)
@zoul the first step to solving a problem is acknowledging there is one and naming it 😉

@haubles I don’t know much but I know I have great neighbours and that feels like something.
@lifewithtrees to me it’s the most important thing. None of us can do any of this alone 💞

Fewer people pointing out problems, and more people suggesting solutions. And then doing the work to implement them.
Thats the world I want.
@haubles
Identifying & analyzing problems is an *absolutely essential* part of solving them, is it not?In fact, sometimes if people are offering "solutions" without understanding the problems, they can do a *lot* of harm, right?

@artemis I agree, and that’s very thoughtfully phrased. There’s a Goldilocks zone between planning and execution - that’s where I want to live.

@haubles I don't know, … sometimes I'm 20 complaints in when I suddenly realise the best solution to the problem that's ever been suggested.
Maybe, the art of complaining and getting angry with full access to hope shouldn't be overlooked!

@haubles your know what I want to see on the world? Mastodon staff not immediately announcing they're (still) hostile to the concerns of their users

@mxjaygrant Can you share a bit more about what is making you say that? This post wasn't directed at Mastodon users, and I don't feel that way about our users at all. But if there's something I've done to make you feel that way, I'd like to work to improve.

@goose Lol yes — in retrospect, I think this post was unnecessarily pithy.
What I really wanted to say was exactly what you articulated here: let's never lose access to hope, and never lose the belief that we have the power to enact change in the world.

@haubles You made this post roughly the same time you went around to Feditips et al introducing yourself as the new Trust and Safety person for Masto. Considering that in the years I've been on Fedi, I've seen Masto punt time and time again on protecting trust and safety, this kind of attitude screams "we don't care about your problems!"
How *exactly* did you think this was going to read if not hostile to the people you're supposed to be representing?

@mxjaygrant Yeah, I can see how that looks, but the timing was a coincidence. I scheduled this post with Fedica last night and it went out before I was even out of bed.
I intended it to be a call to action. I’ve said elsewhere in this thread that it was phrased poorly. I stand by that, even more so now that I see it interpreted as a signal that I don’t care. I’m sorry I wasn’t more thoughtful with my words.
I’m here to listen, and I’m here to do my best to address the needs and concerns of our community. I hope I can prove that to you with my actions.

apps@toot.fedilab.app said in We're building something for the Fediverse.:
> Activity Connect bridges actors that can't communicate directly (blocked instances, different networks).This... sounds potentially problematic at first pass.

silverpill@mitra.social isn't wrong though, in many cases the posts do mean to be posted in that community.
But it's an expressive thing. I'm able to mention a community like startrek@startrek.website and it won't be posted there, because I'm only mentioning that community.
And yes, Mastodon needs mention spam to function because otherwise people you reply to won't know they received a reply. It's ... an approach.

@stefano Sounds intriguing. Good luck Stefano, I hope you get time for us in here in parallel.

@qurlyjoe I’m listening :)

Bored retiree. Nobody listens to me irl. (No reason anybody should, tbh.) SM gives the illusion at least that someone is.
