Scalzi on Nostr: I'm thinking about tribalism in social media a lot at the moment, how it ties into ...
I'm thinking about tribalism in social media a lot at the moment, how it ties into personal identity, and who benefits from the "us v. them" mentality that seems to be coagulating at the moment. I'm on several different social media instances at the moment and find that each scratches a particular itch others don't, whether on a personal or career level. It *can* be enervating navigating all of them, but also can offer opportunities. It's all weird and fluid now and I'm curious where it goes.
