hot take: powerusers who dont use custom feeds arent powerusers
samuel.fm Samuel @samuel.fm · Aug 30
imo the following feed is probably now better for the median user, and powerusers can use custom feeds. this is a W for bluesky
if you miss the “loud” following feed that surfaces everyone’s replies, or if Bluesky is just feeling dead at the moment, this feed does what you want

I have used the forbidden term (WAFFLES) so it is now a "Nazi dog whistle"

Do BlueSky powerusers understand what a laughingstock this place is?

this sites powerusers being almost entirely left of center/flavor of leftist/anti electoral and also having zero conservatives is producing a record number of agraybees

when they say "the deranged behavior of a few powerusers"

they are talking about me

woke: being nice to twitter powerusers

Gonna be a year of rather extreme highs and lows for all the Facebook powerusers with "Works at: On Disability" in their bios

Instead, disagreements tend to get resolved (or not) based on what the powerusers think. Powerusers dominate every site--we (and I am not an especially impressive poweruser, but we all use it way more than the typical account does) define what the boundaries and norms are.

time to make a big life decision (possible names for child). let me draw on trusted resources (dozens of random Quora powerusers from India who write in capslock)

reddit powerusers hate to see a "dignity of risk" mf coming

Bluesky gaining some sort of "popularity" with the mainstream has broken the brains of its powerusers and now everyone's chasing that mythical RESPECTABILITY again which everyone claimed to no longer care about.

It's so fucking sad.

Gemini is cheaper, and Apple users aren't powerusers developing software

More strictly moderating the top 1% of toxic powerusers would make the site more tolerable for the rest of the userbase but it would do nothing about the financial viability of the platform because there is no monetization structure in place

i've assumed for years that if america is still standing in 2040, many of the people running things will be former /r/neoliberal powerusers
this is part of it, the actual, *real* technocrats aren’t mitt romney now
any opposition I had to technocrats (the anti-welfare types) is gone because there's a like technocrat realignment where all the bad ones I didn't trust are all on the republican side now

embrace the technocracy

Sage advice.

And yet, Challenge Rating: Impossible for some powerusers here, I find.
HEY EVERYBODY

If you don't like a person or have a problem with them.

BLOCK THEM.

Don't try to forcibly interact with them just to see if you can rile them up or something.

Block, Move on, no longer interact.

another problem here is lists because Twitter actually had lists but if you blocked the person who made them you would be removed from it, here you stay on lists for eternity and many of those lists are just the personal shitlists of powerusers who advertise them as a cordon sanitaire you can use

Here at OpenAI, we trained a chatbot to never say, "I don't know" or "what the fuck" and found that our powerusers are people who think it grants them a spiritual connection to the universe or some shit

We value our company at $300 billion btw
this feels like an incredible new urban legend taking shape on reddit otoh I've lowkey seen this happen. like jerusalem syndrome but for talking to the computer

They're doing us a favor by keeping us from reading tvtropes. Not even trying to be funny, it makes you worse at media literacy and fiction writing. Their powerusers will realize this when they're away and won't come back when they reverse course, they're cooked

Alright, mods are asleep, let's go:

The real problem with the discourse about social media depressing Americans about the economy is that it (again) mistakes a handful of social media powerusers for a representative sample of the electorate.

i wish i could look up where all the early 2010s tegaki e powerusers are posting now
