    It has a learning curve and it is better suited for technical work IMO. I wouldn’t tell a grandparent to write a letter using LaTeX for example.

    I WOULD trust a grandparent to be able to download Mastodon and make an account, but still I think the analogy works nicely lol

    Might depend on where you are in the world, it’s not really the case where I am

    Twitter, Bluesky, and Mastodon are most common for that format, and Chrome/Safari for browsers. I see more Firefox than Edge, with the exception being locked down work computers






  • Yup, and if you find that it’s still not enough then you can add more friction.

    For example, if there is a certain subreddit that you go to a lot and don’t want to, block that subreddit at the browser level.

    You could block the entire website, but you don’t want to get into the habit of unblocking things (ex. If you need to access a post with some resource, after coming across it when searching). Better to block what you need to block, instead of overdoing it.

    Are they moving to Mastodon?

    With some of these organizations, it might be helpful if locals would contact them asking if they would make a mastodon account. It’s easier to have them make both during a transition, instead of a few months into using bluesky
