    Small notes to be answered rarely.

    I’ve looked at the early Usenet archives, and typical posts there resembled this format quite a lot. It’s later that Usenet became a place where you write long considerate posts, and also expect rather quick answers.

    It’s actually interesting to communicate in a rare terse format.

    The reason I don’t use Twitter, BlueSky, anything like that is - I don’t have a scenario of it being useful for me.

      I follow some economist guys, they are always sharing some graphs and chart data that help people to invest efficiently on the local stock market. Some talk to them and I follow the conversations as they are really interesting. But I don’t talk to them.

        There are upsides to Twitter, but having to follow somebody and to register is a no.
