schestowitz__Yes, but different social control media platforms treat these differently -- same for terminating characters like commas and full stops.Feb 10 04:48
schestowitz__I hope that social control media platforms will go away ASAP, but I worry about what might replace them. YouTube might be one thing...Feb 10 04:48
schestowitz__The concept behind social control media platforms  is flawed.Feb 10 04:48
schestowitz__I get no "news" from social control media platforms, only a few zoobab pointers, sometimes wikileaks. As  they have no presence elsewhere :-(Feb 10 04:48
schestowitz__In JoinDiaspora I quit keeping track of comments I receive as there's far too many of them.Feb 10 04:48
schestowitz__In Twitter I check once a day, MINDS and Pleroma a few times a week.Feb 10 04:48

schestowitz__I often link to them with a critical comment. Or just allude to them without link (typically Microsoft things).Feb 10 05:04
schestowitz__e-mail now takes like 20 secs to open (used to be about 4 minutes due to low RAM!!)Feb 10 05:04
schestowitz__it makes it tempting to check mail more than once a dayFeb 10 05:04
schestowitz__BUT!Feb 10 05:04
schestowitz__I must admit I learned how distracting e-mail can be... more so than social control media notificationsFeb 10 05:04
schestowitz__So please I assume I will check my mail only once, in the morning...Feb 10 05:04
schestowitz__Last time at the gym I read an article about a CEO who chooses to read mail just once a day to reduce stressFeb 10 05:04
schestowitz__I can locate that article if that interests you...Feb 10 05:04
