The man who was Thursday poses a question regarding Sunday's Reading 1 Acts 9:26-31

“When Saul arrived in Jerusalem he tried to join the disciples, but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.”

If you were a Christian, you would do what they did next—send a trusted man to investigate. What evidence would this man expect to see?

Ability to order the feed by people I follow rather than chronological, as I can on RSS readers like feedbro, so I can prioritize high value posters over frequent writers.

For example, suppose I follow Matthew, Mark Luke, John and Bob. And this is ordered most to least valuable to me (for value is subjective).

Say it's been a week since I've been on and while Bob posts daily, Matthew's posts once. But I prize what Matthew says. So I'd expect to see Matthew's new note first, and last, Bob.

But as Primal stands today, I'd see chatty Bob first, and may miss high value but infrequent poster Matt, in the noise.

Classic thinkers distinguish between license, the freedom to do as one pleases, and liberty, the freedom to do as one ought. And for most of us, we ought not spent 5 1/2 hours per day on social media.

Cassandra Shuck and her team at align social are addressing this through the lens of mental health and freedom from addiction to advertising.

I’m doing a little pro bono coding work for Cassandra. Perhaps we will pivot to nostr.

Meanwhile, here’s an interview with Cassandra on https://fountain.fm/episode/b5XonKcFXrZzBOYR9boq
