I used to see him all over the place and now nothing. I checked his post history and it’s been 24 days since he last posted anything.

I don’t know the guy or have any personal stake, but seeing someone everywhere just suddenly disappear is odd.

    I will absolutely not share specifics of this since it would be doxxing him, but I found one of his other social media accounts and it had a post from a week ago that seemed ordinary enough. Whatever got him to stop posting here, it wasn’t something so drastic as to prevent him from engaging with his interests

    (Also Squid, if you see this, I am happy to explain how I found you over DMs if it concerns you)

      I’m glad he’s off if that’s truly him then. Some of the other posts here were worrying. Best of luck to him and his family.

      Glad to hear that he’s apparently doing okay.

      But I must say, I think it’s probably for the best that he dialed down his Fediverse engagement. Both for his own sake (nobody should spend that much time on social media) and for the Fediverse as a whole - he seemed to be everywhere that I went and it made the place feel small and monocultural.

      I’ve always liked the way on Reddit I barely ever recognized anyone’s name. I prefer engaging with the conversation, not with the people.

        I really like just occasionally recognizing someone. Also, user labels are awesome. I write about funny jokes and mad nuts in those.
