Then you **do** use it, no? Right? :-D

Because PHP sucks! See what I did? I am "encouraging" engagement! :-D

Microblogging is often the antithesis of meaningful. You talk about everything, and anything you want. Even to the void. You have done it!

Yarn is niche. With it's forks, and yarns, it comes across as a "weird" microblogging for some (weird was the word a friend from Philippines used to refer to Yarn). The UI/UX has issues (I am not an expert, but I would say copying "the others" and slightly adjusting to give Yarn it's own uniqueness should work), and that keeps people away. The cache blows, I want to be able to see everything, at all times. The built-in search blows, I want a more "ala Google" kind of search. There is more, but you get the gist.

Now, don't misunderstand me. With all the perceived drawbacks/flaws I listed, Yarn works. Could it be much better? For sure. *But* it works. :-D

you got me 😉
I don't use my account on twtxt.net although I like the content that is found there.

Yeah, Yarn as a piece of software is really nice, I've said that a few times before.

Although technology is only a piece of the puzzle.
As a community/ecosystem is perhaps too niche. I agree that 'social platforms' don't need to be meaningful, perhaps they don't even need to be useful.
We are sharing time and words here, so that's good by itself.
