OK understood why you prefer bluesky.

One of the things I really like about Mastodon is that I can curate my feed to show only what I am interested in by following hashtags and/or people and muting those people whose posts I don't want to see. There's no hidden algorithm controlling my feed, pushing controversial posts towards me and other stuff. So I don't get why would you need the invite only feature of bluesky control your feed?

Really, variety of options and potential interlinkage with other kinds of Fediverse projects is what really excites me about the Fediverse.

Lol that's an interesting idea!

Oh yes, this reason makes sense.

I guess different people have different use cases. I am enjoying Mastodon and have had positive interactions with people. I have also found a lot of good quality content there. Additionally, I totally avoid political stuff so haven't had any issues of political stuff messing up my feed. IMO the invite only thing is just increasing attractiveness by creating artificial scarcity.

I have around 600-700 books, that include study books and novels.

Still reading the Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky. More than 70% through. Absolutely love it! I think this book is a 5 ⭐ read for me. I don't want this book to get over. I don't know what to read next!

I followed the link and got the message that "you are a tester", but when I am going to play store I am only seeing "register" option and no download option. How to download this app? Never mind, I checked back after a couple of hours and could download it

This boy definitely looks fashionable, must say.

 

Scientists have discovered that the molecule DIM reduces biofilms causing dental plaque by 90%. Its addition to toothpaste and mouthwash could revolutionize dental hygiene. 3,3′-Diindolylmethane (DIM) decreased the Streptococcus mutans biofilm, a leading contributor to plaque and cavities, by 90%.

A significant portion of the global population experiences persistent issues with dental plaque and cavities or will face them at some time. While toothpaste, mouthwash, and routine dental visits help in prevention, there’s always room for improvement.

Researchers from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, in collaboration with teams from Sichuan University and the National University of Singapore, have identified that 3,3′-Diindolylmethane (DIM) – a naturally occurring molecule also referred to as bisindole – can reduce biofilms responsible for plaque and cavities by a remarkable 90%.
