You know, back in the day, normies used DOS, Windows 3.1, and various Apple machines. (None of these were seamless) You’d be surprised now much non-enthusiasts can do when motivated. They did break stuff, but they tried to use it all.

I really, genuinely like Mobilizon, but the network effect is real, sadly, there aren’t nearly as many people there. I’d probably suggest doing both, and maybe the like-minded people that you find on meetup can follow on Mobilizon, and help that cause as well. Meetup has nothing special, except for lots of people that go there to find events.

An oversight on my part. Thank you for posting it. Sorry that we won’t cross paths there.

No, but if started, and owned Arby’s in a monopoly position for years, and then left… for many years, you’d be blamed for the state of the burger business. (Especially if you bother to comment on it, like Gates is doing)
