    And talk to who? You (and I) and the 0.001% can ham it up, but the rest of the world will be living in a different bubble.

      I’d like to kick most of the world out of my bubble anyway. Most people just annoy and depress me.

      Talk to like-minded people - like you and me here, sitting on Fediverse, discussing tech. Help set family and friends up with access. That’s what I do today with my Matrix server.

      The rest of the world rarely have anything good to say.

        This isn’t how I thought we’d return to the good ole days of the internet, but hey, maybe BBSes can make a comeback.
