Deleuze & Guattari were known potheads.

The same happened here. More than 16 years on Reddit, and most of them as a not-very-active lurker. But here? I’m commenting every day.

As a FOSS guy, here I feel at home. From the community to the community.

KDE, for kwin’s superior window management tools.

Wefwef is weirdly arresting. I know not what it means, but it has a ring to it that makes it unique.

Voyager is just meh. More of the same.

Several, in tandem. The one I’m enjoying the most right now is The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity, by David Graeber, and David Wengrow.

To me, Adblock (Ublock Origin, actually) comes with the internet package. I mean, if I’m connected to the internet in any way, I have to do it with several layers of adblocking. Sometimes, when I have to use someone else’s phone or compute, I’m appalled at how pervasive ads are. It’s crazy what other people tolerate. I ask them, ‘how do you get by with so many ads?’ And, to my surprise, some will say, ‘it’s normal, no biggie.’ Then I rejoice yet again for adblocking technologies and for how much they contribute to my well being and sanity. So, do I use adblockers? Most definitely!

I’ve been a redditor for more than 16 years. Due the the recent events, I’ve been through my comments/submission history, noticing how much more active I was in the beginning. For the past, I don’t know, 5 or more years, I’ve been just lurking less and less, to the point that when it came to delete my content and account, I didn’t even have any regrets. Just did it, and that was it.

Now comes the fediverse. Here I am, commenting again, actively checking what’s happening here with a renewed enthusiasm. So yes, I’m excited for it being FOSS, federated, decentralized. By the people, for the people. Yay!
