I mean, Spanish is the second most spoken language in the US and a large percentage of the country speaks Spanish as their first language. English isn't the official language of the US either, or wasn't, probably the current administration changed that.

They're not distinguishing "remote work" from "working from home" which are two entirely different things. There are whole communities of remote workers who meet and work together around the world. I guarantee you that remote working men who take advantage of these kinds of environments have a better sense of community than men who are forced to go sit in a cubicle with a group of people like the cast of The Office with less sense of humor.

86 started at a speakeasy during the prohibition called Chumley’s at 86 Bedford Street in NYC. They'd kick out poorly behaved people, telling them to "86 it" out the door.

In my social circles, people have moved from Facebook to Instagram and WhatsApp. To be honest, it's a different UI but the same algorithmic overlords.

The thing with Facebook/Meta is that it's not just one thing. It's a lot of different things under one umbrella. In general, the replacement for Meta is the Fediverse. But you need to be specific about which features you want to replace.

For long form posts, I've set up my own blog using Ghost. Ghost also has passable Fediverse support now, though it's still missing a lot of features.
