“Why do journalists covering the biggest story of their career—the attempted overthrow of democracy—want to treat it like routine politics?..It’s as if they're covering the flood of the century & want to save it for the regularly scheduled weather report.”

At the Spoutible First Year Reunion in Cincinnati, be prepared for:
1. Some of us having different accents than what we might be imagining
b) Long pauses in the conversations as we carefully craft our replies and witty quips in real time

In response to I Smoked Threads.
I still think it's all about waiting for a critical mass to be achieved here before it becomes my go to, simply because I use Twitter as an aggregator more than a platform for interaction. But there are some actual top rate accounts here that have me checking every day, so that's progress.
10:08 PM - Jul 06, 2023
Looked at threads. So far, this is still my favorite alternative. There are a lot of peope there since they could port over an entire IG audience but that's about it

Dear new cell phone,
I know we barely know each other but when I write 'damn', I mean damn. Do not, under any circumstances, autocorrect it to 'darn'. I have NEVER used that word in my lifetime. EVER.
Thanksomuch.

There has been lots of due praise heaped on @cbouzy , but I’d really like to thank Ms. Bouzy & the Bouzy offspring. Behind every hard working entrepreneur, is a support system working equally hard and giving up time with their loved one. So, thanks Ms. B & fam.

People are rushing to Threads. Today feels like the day that Twitter became MySpace and BlueSky is forgotten.
I'm still bullish on Spoutible. :)

Just now, the salmon are jumping in greater numbers. Soon the whole place will be filled with bears. So exciting. You can watch on explore.org Brown Bears at Brooks Falls in Katmai, Alaska.
No, I don't think I will inundate Spoutible with bear and salmon pics. :D

Hey #Spoutible fam! Have any of y’all read Good Intentions by Kasim Ali? Just finished it a couple days ago and thought it was a refreshing take on the intersections of mental health, racism, and culture. It touched on the nuances of colorism and how easy it is to slip into complacency. Thoughts?

Like, follow & interact with people/posts to create connections. Use search tool to find people. Search hashtags to build your interests. Good luck & welcome to Spoutible. 🙂

You have to participate in posting, echoing, quote spouting, sharing, and following others. Unlike Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, etc...likes don't drive engagement, participation does. #YouAreTheAlgorithm

Same observation here.
And my beef isn't that my own posts get little engagement, but rather that the overwhelming majority of posts I come by have 0-to-few replies.
Even the top posters' threads have paltry amounts of engagement.

Hey Chris Bouzy, Spoutible is a refreshing change from Twitter, but the level of engaging interaction, for me, has been a bit disappointing. A lot of my spouts are seeing no engagement. 🥺🥺
