As the fediverse continues to grow, let’s reflect on some of the things that we disliked most about posting/lurking on reddit and what we can do differently now that we have a chance to build something new.

    I think self promotion is alright sometimes like in the case where someone writes a really detailed technical breakdown of something. It’s easier to format complex subjects on your own blog than in a thread. I totally agree if the entire purpose of someone’s account is to boost their own website though

      that begs the question, though: what is the purpose of having an account on the fediverse? if there is a wrong answer (self promotion) what is the right answer?

      I’m fine with someone making an alt account just to promote their stuff. It’s healthy to have a firewall between work and relaxation.
