I feel like I remember reading somewhere that you're supposed to change the direction the fan spins in summer and winter because of temperature/airflow but you're probably right 😄

Last I checked the Debian community was unable to achieve consensus on the issue, maybe I've missed something? Debian is my comfy place and I was legitimately sad they didn't immediately rule it out.

Why not just use Mastodon/Fediverse?
There are many problems with Mastodon, mostly due to the fact that it doesn't rely on any cryptography. Because it cannot do the multi-master approach of Nostr due to lack of cryptography, identities are assumed to be "owned" by the server, which is fully trusted by its tenants. Mastodon server owners can do all the harm centralized platforms can do to their underlings, which are completely helpless in case of misbehavior or even in the normal case where a server owner loses their server or decides to shut down for whatever reason.
Worse than that, for many of its purported features, such as blocking or direct messages, users have to also trust owners of the other servers.
There are also problems with reliance on the DNS system, but we don't have to talk about those.
The most interesting feature of Mastodon is that by its nature it creates communities with shared values that grow in each of its servers. Or, should I say, that should be a feature if it actually worked like that. In fact these are not really communities, but a mashup of users that may share some interests among each other, but also have other interests and those other interests end up polluting the supposed "community" with things that do not interest the other users.
Nostr, on the other hand, can create real communities around relays, specifically because users don't have to fully belong to those relays, but can go to them only for some of their needs and go to other relays for other needs.

i HATE this SO much. hijab enables us to participate in society on the basis of our own merits. Khadija ra was successful in business as part of a whole and complete life without making "girlbossing" her entire personality. "representation" is regressive and defeats the entire purpose of hijab as it makes being a female the main reason why you're doing X thing. it's the cognitive version of the "sexy pantsuit." some things will be a boys club because we are DIFFERENT, if you're good at it just show up and do it without the gender agenda.

That's part of it. Overall I've noticed an overpersonalization of the average person's relationship with public figures through the interaction factor that social media has spearheaded. We believe we know intimately X person's life and beliefs, making them 'trustworthy' or not.
