All the pawns unite and fight the rest

They are gorgeous and a great photo. Makes me want to wander along the path and see what’s around the turn

Plenty of responses here but adding mine in the spirit of open discussion. I appreciate this step. Was starting to see too many posts that I didn’t want and worried that this was going to do the way of other socials I’ve already left. I’m looking forward to tracking the growth of the fediverse and appreciate the thoughtful approach.

Same. Hope we have GDT in place by next season!

I would agree that encouraging reading is better but too many articles are behind paywalls and/or poorly written without substance. I find tldr helps me to assess whether there is likely to be anything behind the fluff and am grateful to those who post them.

Hello all, and thank you for the opportunity to be a part of Beehaw. As with others, motivated to explore due to Reddit API drama, however even if that gets resolved I am excited about engaging here. Really appreciated the thoughtfulness and intention behind the information posts by the founders, and kudos to those who created this space. At 60+ I may be among the older members, but really I don’t know which is just fine with me.

I’ve been fascinated by the development, successes, and failures of the internet. It’s a long way from my first computer programming classes using punched cards. Even though I didn’t pursue that career line that curiosity keeps leading me to the emerging and less commercialized spaces in social media. Along the way I have enjoyed hearing perspectives from different generations, diverse groups, and from across the globe so thank you for sharing.

Lots of interests including literature (Jane Austen in particular), rock music, gardening, art museums, occasional travels, and NHL hockey. I live in the Southeast of the US. Prefer not to sit in political spaces for too long, but generally moderate liberal.
