I like the idea because the restrictions on new friends seeing old posts is a similar vibe to one I’ve been thinking about for a long time.
I keep dreaming about an ephemeral social network that functions more like a party — posts expire after a time. I appreciate that there’s not a permanent record of every conversation at a party for people to review later.
Maybe I’m just nostalgic for FidoNet. We expired posts in Echomail groups because we had small hard drives. I appreciate that most of my youthful rants aren’t on archive.org. Unfortunately, some of the dumb nonsense I wrote in 1987 will outlive me.
I would enjoy the freedom to talk with friends and know it vanishes a few weeks later.

Weed. They grow weed like that. Not wheat.

MkDocs plus Material theme on GitHub pages is pretty sweet. Automatic dark mode, useful plugins. I migrated from WordPress, no looking back.
