The linked post shows how most non-tech people's understanding of email is very very different from most of the people here.

I don't expect non-tech people to ever come to or care about this place, or Mastodon.

Part of social media is predation. There is a draw to Facebook, even if it is the endless sea of bullshit emanating through it, the marketing of products and echo chambers.

people would love to be entertained by our intellectual discussions!

They watch Adam Sandler movies, lad. We've already lost.

It's a draw. We have no draw, other than being DIY NPR (now with 5% more tankies). It's a draw, but it won't draw them. It's not what they care about.
