Using Mastodon for threads

I had this idea of using Mastodon as a private thread-based Zettelkasten. I’m not sure why I would start yet another note-taking system, but the fact that I could use apps like Croissant or Tusks to manage these threads is more close to how my brain works than a Zettelkasten.

I like to start with an idea, then develop it, and keep appending to it. More on this in 2.6.12.1.

The Zettelkasten is not really a thread-based system. It is more of a network of ideas. But the linear nature of threads is basically why I’m fascinated by append-only information storage. 2.16

In a way, having that kept in Mastodon would mean that I can start writing an idea, but after I publish, I can’t change it anymore. The system would be append-only.
