c​apjamesg I'm not sure how many people there are in Hong Kong, but we do have community members around the world who regularly chat in this chat room!

GWG- I spent 7 hours in the Hong Kong airport once, but that's the closest I got to being in the community

AramZS I know a lot of folks here use mico.blog. I'm curious, how easy is it to export data from if I wanted to move to a different platform?
#

[manton] Thanks! Just updated that page with a couple recent improvements to exporting too. It was a bit out of date. (We’ve added more export options in the Mac app.)

[tantek] It's good for your org (employee mental health) to leave Twitter, yes, even/especially journalists: https://niemanreports.org/articles/npr-twitter-musk/

[snarfed]1 trying to write up a post on big vs small fedi, opt in vs opt out federating, context collapse, bridges, etc, and man is it difficult

#
c​apjamesg You'll get there
#
c​apjamesg It takes time to figure out what you want to say.
#
[tantek] [snarfed] it *is* hard for so many reasons!
#
[tantek] we do have some analysis of some of these things on the wiki which may help you
#
[tantek] what is publics
#
Loqi publics are the combined set of people who make up the readership or audience of a post https://indieweb.org/publics
#
[tantek] what is context collapse
#
Loqi Context collapse refers to when a social media user who belongs to a specific peer or social group shares a post publicly but with the expectation that the audience understands the social norms and practices of the group creating a “private” post in public https://indieweb.org/context_collapse
#
[tantek] ^^ and both of those pages could use some gardening to incorporate interesting things from their See Alsos into their article content
