npub1vz4kffpt4z6emsxjv4xf5glth5l269f6ktg45znyrcu55mtl42jsxzrnyf (npub1vz4…rnyf) Yes, I find myself questioning the internet a lot these days. I think its main issue is its lack of physicality, not something, I think, that it can fix. When people interact in the physical world, we are tied to our locations, and so we adapt to these environments, and the environment come to be a reflection of our interactions (constrained by time and space). I'm probably complexly waffling something quite obvious and simple here, but the issue is that I don't think we can "fix" the virtual world through organisation, because it is missing a dimension, the physical, that places constraints on our behaviour and necessitates that we get on (to a degree).
And this is before we even get on to the virtual problem of being unable to verify the truth of your virtual environment (are you talking to real people, are you viewing a subset of the information that is actually available), and then the ease that opinion can be manipulated from central sources.
Ah, I am waffling. But like I say, I'm becoming quite disillusioned with the internet space. I feel that physical socialising has become more difficult (certainly for me), but I feel that is the area that I need to move towards.
