I don’t use twitter, and it seems to me that other OSS programmers who actively use twitter are much better connected than I am. They tweet a new project they’re working on and suddenly it has people trying it out. I don’t begrudge that at all. They’ve put a lot of time into building their reputations. I just wish I could find a way to enjoy twitter so I can get in on that.

Many OSS people aren't on Twitter. They're on IRC, Mastodon and mailing lists.

Mastodon works under lynx, at least from brutaldon.online.

Much saner, less mobs, less sensationalim, less tribalism, less bullshit.
