Thanks for reading! What questions or comments do you have for Mamie?
https://casinonongamstop.net came up in my head while reading Mamie's point that meetings are "the single biggest productivity problem in business today," and honestly it's hard to argue with that when you've sat through a hundred calendar invites that could've been a two-line email. What stuck with me more, though, is her framing meetings as a lever for culture change rather than just a scheduling nuisance, because I've seen teams fix their agendas and still miss the real issue, which is whether people feel safe enough to say something useful.

The idea of a Mastodon instance that grew from a personal note-taking space is genuinely appealing. It suggests a level of care and intentionality that larger platforms often lack. Xuha seems to offer that kind of environment, where the gradual opening to a small circle of like-minded people could foster meaningful conversation rather than just noise.
