minus-square@gruelinkEnglish17•edit-21 month agoSo if not tweeting about it, WTF are you expecting from him? Be specific.
minus-squareDrusaslinkfedilink2•1 month agoTweeting is fine. Advice in the tweets would be nice. And I’m not expecting anything from him at all. It’s good of him to chime in.
minus-squareDrusaslinkfedilink1•1 month agoThere is nothing concrete to act upon. “Do something” is too vague.
minus-square@moriquendelink0•1 month agoSo you believe it would be better if he didn’t write at all unless he has some concrete action points for you?
minus-square@moriquendelink0•1 month agoThinking about an issue is already an implicit action point that you’re forced into by reading about it. Also, it motivates further discussion out of which ideas can emerge. Naming problems is valuable by itself.

Why not?

That’s what you’re doing here also.

Not for me. For at least someone.
