   Too much noise and not enough substance on identi.ca. I'm not getting any value there. I'm not going to follow it anymore.

     @segphault I've had a much better experience since moving to a StatusNet cloud site and subscribing to specific identi.ca users and groups.

     @fontana @segphault: In my experience #Twitter is noisier given that it's far more populous/popular.

     @segphault isn't that the problem with the internet as a whole? I've been 'trimming the fat' following wise for a month now #feelsgoodman

     @fontana I also see better threaded discussions on identi.ca, not sure if it's tool or audience. Twitter feels more broadcast-y.

     @fontana Right - it's not that there's no f/oss discussion on #twitter; it's that the discussion on identi.ca tends to be *only* f/oss

     @quaid Ditto. And Twitter doesn't do context linking back to thread here, just to identi.ca home. I guess it's to not drive traffic away.

     @fontana I use twitter's trending topics to remind me there are more than #neckbeards in the world.

     @rrix I use twitter's trending topics to remind myself of why I think that we should colonize space... Must quarantine stupidity.

     @threethirty If #Republicans keep defunding anything w/ word "science" on it, the only colonizing will be #military invasions. #fail

     @segphault but will you still send to identi.ca? That is the value I find in following people here (inc you)

     @segphault What are your proposed alternatives to identi.ca, then? What are you going to continue/start following? Share your ideas, please.
