Interesting - a friend visited startups in Israel and said that every single one they visited has “everyone in the office, all the time” culture. Outdated or are they out executing flex and remote companies?

I'm here for conversation, and I've learned plenty along the way by trying to listen carefully. As long as I can continue to do that, I'll probably be fine with future changes. If not, welp, I'll have to find some other place where I can continue to have conversations with people.

I've pondered the "broadcast" vs "conversation" dichotomy here before. But with the recent newcomers, I am seeing a another dimension I hadn't considered. There's people who seem to want to use this place in a third way. Dive in and out of conversations they aren't part of, algorithmically surface "interesting" content etc. I wonder if the fediverse can accommodate all these different uses? Maybe, although I suspect it won't be a unified fediverse, but it already isn't, so...
