“But if it saves a teenager from seeing depressing Instagram posts it’s a worthy price to pay” — no it’s not, especially when the damage is spread thinly over the whole population.

“The #ai revolution can’t happen if we all don’t believe hard enough in it” sounds like the motivational speech you’d hear from a cult leader rather than in #davos.

Posts on #pleroma and #akkoma are not searchable by default - Mastodon implemented the `indexable` flag a while ago but other ActivityPub implementations didn’t follow up.

Superstition is the act of acknowledging that anything bad that happens is your fault.
It’s important to teach yourself to feel responsible for random events, because with great responsibility comes great power.
