My first reblog on Micro.blog 🤔 by @JohnPhilpin

💬 content = slop. END OF. But if you present me an essay, book, article, video, pithy comment, observation, slice of humour .. that broadens my mind, my thinking or entertains me .. I’m all over it. Cannot wait for the filters to arrive. To allow me to train my AI to throw content into the trash.

@JohnPhilpin not sure if I like the feature though. It’s too Twitter / X styling

💬 John Philpin

you sent it via micro.social ?

Munish

@JohnPhilpin I did indeed

so my gut then is that this will evolve … I do like the idea of the functionality … I write a post on MB and it is syndicated to other places .. all those other places offers an equivalent .. which allow the conversation to move on and expand reach into the respective clouds .. but until micro.social that wasn’t part of the social aspects of what you can do here. That has now changed …I appreciate Manton is designing friction into the system .. which is not a bad thing … like you ‘can’t’ reply with an image … so reduces banality because of that friction .. and I think this functionality is one of those things … the friction is there .. but there is generally a workaround.

@JohnPhilpin Understood and agree. Interestingly, I try not to use mb to share my posts elsewhere, unless they are professional posts. I like the feel of a smaller community. I know this has changes as people have moved away from mb.
