Spot on

It’s certainly possible that it is happening constantly, and we’ve only started looking for it recently. I’ve had a tinker with writing a better headline and it’s not easy. What would your short, pithy, accurate and unambiguous headline be - suitable for a non-technical audience?

I think I volunteered to help moderate it about 3 months ago 😕

HeartyBeast, to kbinMeta in I'm seeing more microblog posts
@HeartyBeast@kbin.social avatar

Perhaps you switched your view from ‘Threads’ to ‘All content’ without realising?

HeartyBeast, to science in CDC Warns of Cow-to-Human Transmission of H5N1 Bird Flu in Texas
@HeartyBeast@kbin.social avatar

Posted because it’s one of the most informative -accessible, but rigorous articles I’ve read on H5N1

HeartyBeast, to fediverse in President Biden is now posting into the fediverse
@HeartyBeast@kbin.social avatar

If you search for @potus he comes up and you can select Follow. Content should then show in the ‘Microblog’ stream. Might take a while to start flowing, though

HeartyBeast, (edited ) to kbinMeta in Do the "Ernest needs to add more maintainers to KBin!" comments remind anyone else of the xz social engineering malarkey?

Irrespective this thread is not about who is or is not burnt out, it's about how posts like your are what enabled the xz backdoor to happen.

I thin you need to chill a bit. Open source has a long illustrious history of people cooperating to build software and submit patches and enhancements which are then scrutinized by project leads. Yes, occasionally bad actors use this model to try and slip through exploits, but you don't throw out one of the strengths of open source because of that. You make sure mechanisms are in palce to allow robust scrutiny.

And no, I'm absolutely not going go through someone's post history and quote bits that show someone is frazzled. I expect you to have enough empathy

I’m not going to pick through his last year’s posts and make a diagnosis, but if you’ve seen no evidence of that, I think you’re wilfully ignoring the signs.

HeartyBeast, to science in Why do some animals have 'virgin births'?
@HeartyBeast@kbin.social avatar

More interesting to frame it the other way around really - why would some organisms reproduce using this dangerous, complex, uncertain process called sex

HeartyBeast, to kbinMeta in So blimey - what happened there?
@HeartyBeast@kbin.social avatar

Thank you. That makes sense
