This is the type of high-brow conversation that keeps me on Lemmy.

Mastodon managed to just confuse the hell out of me before boring me. Take that with a grain of salt, though, because I was never on Twitter. It may be me, not the platform/concept.

The full text extraction takes some technical fiddling and reading, but it works like a charm!

IIRC there’s an episode of Jacobin Radio where they interview the author. Really fascinating, actually! I’ll dig around after work and try to find the link!
