To add to this, the worst misconceptions that have led to misinformation and political strife are:
1. There are only two sides. My side and the bad one.
No, there are not. It’s not a sports game.
2. Anything said about the other side is true and doesn’t need fact checking.
No, it especially does. People have a blind spot for stories that match their worldview or that they want to be true.
3. Someone I agree with must be a good person (and vice versa)
Nope. Definitely not.
Hey guys, quick PSA for you:
Never just post a ‘shocking’ story on social media without fact checking it first. Even if it’s about those on the other side of the political spectrum.
No wait, ESPECIALLY if it’s about those on the other side of the political spectrum.
Because misinformation and hearsay are everywhere, and it will spread if not questioned.

Godot 4.0 sets sail NOW! ⛵️
A complete overhaul. A solid foundation to build upon. #GodotEngine

@godotengine Wow, this is great!
@VentureSmash I saw that post 😆
@zudn Alright. Glad to hear!
I thought this was a nice simple overview of the recently discovered broken #SSBU_Steve tech. https://youtube.com/shorts/aIredmTAvw4?feature=share
And we thought Steve was bad enough as he was....
Maybe #Nintendo will fix this; they're not releasing any more balance patches, but this is a #bug, right?
@zudn Oh no! How are things for your and your family?

Apparently there is now a genuine "Mastodon For Dummies" book:
It's a real physical book, it's in bookshops and libraries! Depending on where you live, it's out now or out this week.
I haven't read it (yet) but the index seems promising and they even cover non-Mastodon Fediverse platforms including lesser known ones like @inventaire
(Thanks to @technomancy for highlighting this release!)
@kyle I personally find that it sometimes takes self-control to stop oneself from taking a hobby so far as to be a job and not a hobby (financially viable hobbies aside of course). I keep on wanting to go big on things I like, at the expense of things I'm better off doing (and even perhaps happier doing!).
Hello there!
I boost a lot of posts, but I have a few things to say every now and then.
I am largely fine with boosting posts from people I disagree with even on significant, dividing issues. I usually don't, however, if they actively advocate for these ideas... so it goes :/
