No matter which social network you're on, following a diverse group of people helps you taking a peek at the other side of your personal filter bubble.You don't have to agree with everything and everyone, but please, at least try to listen to people and their opinions.It will help you appreciate your own life, and may just make you a little wiser.

@fribbledom just be careful you don't fall into the paradox of tolerance

@fribbledom Jack at #Twitter needs to read this, instead he bans people his world view does not agree with, like James Woods.

@fribbledom I agree in practice, although here we are getting into the philosophy of what a social network *should be*. Shouldn't social networks strictly facilitate and reflect real-life social networks and all that that entails? The moment we start nudging people toward being their best selves -- away from tribalism, embrace other cultures -- we are making and enforcing value judgments on a natural system that evolved over millions of years. And if not, who does the deciding and enforcing?

@fribbledom I try to do this within normal bounds. For sanity sake have to filter out the fringes on both sides...

@fribbledom I think this is true but the ability to do this depends on the diversity available on the network itself. i'd like to "follow" people who don't use computers at all.

@fribbledom this sounds neat and all, but not exactly practical when you're trans and/or LGBTQ+ or something that often faces endless harassment in social networks. Even if I find something unique or inspiring, I don't want to have to wade through thousands of opinions about how I don't deserve to exist to get it.

@fribbledom it was very interesting first when subscribing to #AlJazeera on #diaspora, and see how wide their selection is from all around the world, which is not usual for your average news agency. But, overall, it's pretty hard to find different people who aren't annoying as well. 😁 [Or I for them.]

@fribbledom I totally agree! I think the problem with polarization these days is more because people can curate their own information bubbles much more easily. For this reason I only am for overlapping truths from multiple contradictory sources. Funny thing is youll find that most information sources go off on wild tangents of speculation.

@fribbledom Addendum: however, users with the habit of dehumanizing other users will be filtered out.

@fribbledom closeminded admins make this harder when they defederate instances on whims making it impossible to follow some people. it is sad
