(This is supposed to be a thread, but I'm going to be new to Mastodon for a long time so, maybe it worked?)

    @Mer__edith@mastodon.world It did. (And we are all new to Mastodon, so don't be too hard on yourself. )

    @Mer__edith@mastodon.world Looks like a thread to me! The only thing you missed is that it's easier on your followers' timelines if you make every toot after the first one Unlisted. But you're not the only person who fails to do that! 😅

  • @Mer__edith@mastodon.world It is a thread, indeed! And welcome! I know it must be at least as exhausting for you guys who are just joining, to adjust to how things work around here, and all the stuff old-timers are dumping in your lap, as it is for all the old-timers who suddenly have all these wide-eyed newcomers poking around, so feel free to disregard if this seems out of line: There are lots of different options for you if you often do longer-form posts, besides making a thread. You could talk to your server admin about the character limit, and how they would feel about increasing it. Or you could shop around for other instances / softwares that have a higher character limit already. That way you could post the whole thing as a single toot, instead of making a thread. Or you could just make a thread, if that's what you prefer. That's also valid!

  • @Mer__edith@mastodon.world thread works. I presume you mean by: "Particularly because these laws would, in effect, prevent people developing tech from NOT building mass surveillance and censorship capabilities." this: "Particularly because these laws would, in effect, encourage people developing tech to build more mass surveillance and censorship capabilities". In which case I very strongly agree. We do need to be coordinated and bold. We are the only ones genuinely tackling this in search.

    @Mer__edith@mastodon.world I would say it's much more than a thread. It's obviously the framework of a highly elaborated train of thought that would deserve to be published on https://writefreely.org/ as a comprehensive argumentation with further developments to be followed through notifications on Mastodon. Just a suggestion I couldn't help giving.
