@ajeremias when compared to Mastdon:

- "original toot" is a story (or link)
- toot replies are the story/link comments
- stars are vote-ups

And everything dressed up in a UI similar to hackernews / reddit. Also, you can interact with prismo stories using your mastodon account (by voting and replying)

"This is why I talk to myself using social media.

It lets past me communicate with future me."

"Sierra Leone and many other African countries receive aid. But it does not necessarily get us anywhere... We're not looking into the future, we're not designing our own future.

Unless we have a host of young people who can think at any given point that 'here's a challenge' that 'here's a problem', where it's an opportunity to solve it... there won't be a steep growth in national development"

Thank you mastodon for being open source. For not having annoying tracking, or advertising. Thank you Ostatus and GNUsocial for providing an open protocol and bootstrapping a network around it. Thank you other software in the federation for doing what you do. And the people behind it all: thank you for being you.
