At some point over the past year, you asked readers if we'd suggest topics for you to write about. I can't find that request now. Nonetheless, I do have a suggestion, perhaps somehow loosely related to this article (make of my subconscious/forced connection what you will).

Ketan Joshi posts on Bluesky today:

"I care about people leaving X *much much more* than I care about people joining Bluesky (or threads or whatever).

IMO part of the problem is devs of each site don't see this as critical infrastructure, so no moral urgency. Honestly, the parallels with climate are....remarkable

'Move fast but do not break things; do it carefully but urgently' doesn't fucking exist for these people. It's either fast and destructive or gratingly, glacially slow."

This idea isn't so much about conflicting needs of self/other (as you discussed in this article) but more about conflicting timelines for making that system change (whatever it be). Shall we do it quickly+shoddily or slowly+carefully? Where is the best balance of urgently+correctly? Business people discuss this a lot under rubrics like "minimum viable product." Very roughly, it means "make it just barely good enough, and have it on my desk Monday morning." I wonder if this approach/attitude/consciousness is discussed in social/eco-justice too.
