One of my favorite genres of fedi posts is the @cwebber plaintive plea for people to explain things to her, things that she is in the top 0.001% of experts in.
Can someone explain to me why I find those posts so hilarious?

The following is a random quote from my next book, Move Slowly and Build Bridges:
First, it is false to argue that the #fedipact members are against openness. As I have argued across this bok, the covenantal fediverse is open to people who want to become members....
@thisismissem @nivenly this is such a cool and needed project!
I keep hearing people call legitimate concerns about LLMs/generative AI a "moral panic."
I really hope folks stop using that framing. This is not the same as parents getting freaked out about Dungeons and Dragons in the 1980s. This is a moment when huge, for-profit interests are seeking to exploit the creativity of writers, artists, and anyone else who creates. It's completely legitimate to express concerns. It's not a moment of "Won't someone PLEASE think about the children!?!".
@cwebber yes! It's all about how Mastodon invented ActivityPub!
My book about Mastodon and the fediverse is now available for pre-order!
