@maya Especially since the tradition owes its existence to the diamond industry.
@ghost_bird yeah there are a lot of traditions that derive their meaning from, like, centuries of practice that are potentially valuable separately from contingent/problematic origins... but w/diamond rings we're talking what, 5, 6 generations max?
@maya I say we should do [[append only]].
@flancian my ideal would probably be editable with a visible audit trail. for platforms where you can boost/RT/reblog, it's really rough to have corrections separate from an original post that can circulate independently
@maya yes, I fully agree. This is why in the Agora I'm trying to have first class support for linking and optionally importing arbitrary resources.
I think [[ctzn]] had this right, with a long form essay optionally associated to each micropost. I was saddened to see it be deprioritized, although I understand the author.
😬🧷: microblogging has neither the social immediacy of chat nor the considered aspect of email. while I still accept responsibility for the impact of what I write, until this crap gets an edit button, it may not ever be what I *meant*.
