Strfnurfn<p>EDIT: Thanks all!! I'm passing along your suggestions. </p><p>Anyone know an open-source project, even a small one, that needs API docs created or improved?

Magic Hopi<p>Since I joined Mastodon in 2022, I haven't taken the time to write an <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>introduction</span></a>. With <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/HelloQuitX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HelloQuitX</span></a> and the current shitshow, now is probably a good time !</p><p>I'm a linguist &amp; painter who found a calling working on digital information architecture. With age, I'm turning into an ecofeminist witch.</p><p>I've been practicing <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/yoga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>yoga</span></a> &amp; <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/meditation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>meditation</span></a> for 20 years, trained as a teacher but I'm weary of new-age bullshit being a cover for capitalism investing our bodies.

Ivana Isadora Devcic<p>Nobody asked for my opinions on <a href="https://mastodon.xyz/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ChatGPT</span></a> so here goes:</p><p>- I don't think it will "replace" me (or anyone who truly understands how <a href="https://mastodon.xyz/tags/techcomm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>techcomm</span></a> works).<br>- It will be very useful and make many jobs easier.<br>- It will definitely be exploited in many ways for unsavory, harmful or worse purposes.<br>- As someone said, the current version is "the world's most self-confident bullshit generator", so people with strong critical thinking, fact-checking and content editing skills will continue to be in demand.</p>
