@trwnh@mastodon.social the semantic overlap is for sure a big part of the conflict, I agree, not to mention the "context collapse by design" features we've carried forward from the "popular" commercial implementations as though it's useful and good.

folks on here often discuss how bizarre it is to reply guy your way into a conversation online when you'd not act in a similar fashion in the real world.

this weekend we were sitting outside the hotel and talking about jazz and art scenes of the past and such, and I mentioned that my dad, who was a boomer, didn't listen to Monk and Coltrane, he wasn't into that kind of jazz, he was into big band jazz like Tommy Dorsey and Glenn Miller, mostly because he grew up listening to his parents music, and a fucking rando boomer reply guyed into our conversation right there on the sidewalk and bitched that they did listen to Monk and Coltrane and I wasn't being fair to my parents by saying otherwise, despite him having absolutely no clue who my parents were much less having known them, and folks, that's the deal: reply guying is assuming a boomer stance. don't be that guy.
