The unicorn is the Org Mode logo, for those unaware.

You are ridiculous, and I love that for you.
The official client is an emacs package, interesting! These parts from the readme made me chuckle:
To consume and read other users’ feeds, you can read them manually, use a script, or a client.
Because of the decentralised nature it is very difficult to discover new users.
T_T
WHY DOES EMACS HAVE A EXTENSION FOR FUCKING EVERYTHING?!
It’s meant to be a text editor. That’s it.
Yes… but also WordPress is supposed to be a blogging platform, and now it powers like half the web.
People hack around the arbitrary limitations of software all the time!
Same for modded mc. It’s modded to the point that it’s no longer minecraft.
I’m getting all my friends into Meshtastic, a system of mesh networked packet radios that can be very cheap and do not require a HAM license.
A few of us will be trying out then forking a BBS running on an RPi connected to a radio node. Though that will technically be less decentralized, it will be more social media like.
Meanwhile I can’t get people to switch to matrix(element) from whatsapp…
Heads up, the encryption has been cracked, and not fixed as far as I’m aware. Still works as radio though.
Matrix has at least 3 times as many users as bluesky. And most servers arent even publishing their users counts. But arguably most people arent using matrix as a social media platform. I wouldnt count discord as traditional social media either.
