I think I’m groping towards finding a better place to do my sub-blogamatic thinking than twitter. I’ve been unhappy with my use of twitter for a while. Mastodon is a different kind of headspace. I don’t like private note taking for the sort of thinking I do here.

This might sound trite but... Forums? Discourse forums are easy to set up and work well on mobile. Tech has actually gotten better in last few years.

Not good for thinking out loud. Good for intentional communities. The huge feature of twitter us access to a huge, always-on hive mind that has no particular agenda or cultural personality. It’s the closest thing to a public space I guess.

I think hyperthreading is a very tempting, fertile, and easy way to think, but also one with no endgame in sight that interest me. So you’re left trying to extract thoughts for more usable memory/publishing media (a huge chore) or trying to breakthrough to the other side.
Not sure where more aggressive hyperthreaders like are going with this but I can’t see an endgame, and I don’t trust twitter enough to create a good one (the opposite... they’ll do something pointlessly perverse and kill what magic there is)

Maybe you should download your tweet archive, publish it searchable somewhere and then start a new season of tweets.
