🔗 Against the Cozy Web
The latter annoys me: the assumption that the internet is a terrible place, a dark forest where all the good people and spirits have left the public sphere and are now hiding in private, cozy spaces.
This is the first time I’ve heard the phrase “the cozy web” but Kristoffer Tjalve (of the excellent Naive Weekly blog/newsletter) hits a nerve. I’m a long-time believer in the power of the open web, despite all the bad stuff out there, but I do have a couple of cozy places I like to hang out in too.
