In the US most kids learn with pencils. When I was a kid we used wooden pencils until mechanical ones were eventually allowed and ballpoint pen usage typically was discouraged until high school. I settled on smooth flow liquid ink ball point type pens for extensive handwriting nowadays.

Defederated from what though? I still see plenty of other community’s posts.

This is still a new frontier of site conglomeration we have no data for. If anything we have contradicting data to previous instances of this occurring because megasites have yet to fail since the rise of Facebook.

Yeah getting the niche communities off the ground is going to be really challenging this go round.

For most people it’s just a bit too arcane.
