This is your reminder that the heart of the Fedi isn't one person. It's all the people who BOOST the posts they think are important.
There's no algorithm here to tell you which posts you should be paying attention to. That's YOUR JOB. So BOOST the things you love. BOOST the things you think are important. And BOOST the posts that make your heart laugh.
The Fediverse needs YOU to BOOST.

Anyone using these tools for hiring is going to have some massive discrimination lawsuits in their future.

Me: So why did you do it?

Remember 100 years ago when radiation was new and exciting and poorly understood, and companies were putting radiation into everything?
Thankfully we learned our lesson and will never make that mistake again.
