"PI.FYI is currently the last remaining wholesome place on the internet, in a landscape where other platforms reward lashing out and mayhem."
YES! Find myself running here just to breathe a bit, better than any other mental health apps out there, proving that humans can be nice and helpful online. LIVE kudos to tyler

feeling grateful for my mutuals and for every recommendation i got. i feel like this platform is healing me after using twitter as my only social media for years. everyone is genuinely helpful and it’s so refreshing when everywhere else is full of hate and negativity.. being on here just gives me hope like these are the people i’ve always wanted as my friends. it’s cool to just be yourself, to appreciate the small things and to share joy & that’s what the internet should be about!

Something I’m realising as I spend more time on this platform is how nice it is to see optimism online for once. People helping others, and giving advice to enrich life. Because life online doesn’t have to be about staring at depressing headlines, it can be about learning new things! I used to be on Twitter all the time, but since I got this app I’ve used it a lot less - I’ve been on this app about 3x the amount of time I’ve been on twt this week. And I feel much better for that, as there’s no more doomscrolling.
Also I love how like the early internet, this place is half cat photos. As it should be (I am totally unbiased…)

but actually. I have other answers too, like the bike trail near my house, a bar in town, and some coffee shops, but the amount of sincerity and genuine connection this app provides has it feeling more and more like a bona-fide 3rd space. There’s a sense that a lot of people are “regulars“ here, and it’s getting to the point where I’m genuinely invested to see how people are feeling, what they’re thinking, and what they’re up to.
Even though it feels kind of weird to dub a website a third place since there’s a lack of face-to-face interaction, this is still where people (myself included) relax, encounter familiar faces, and make new acquaintances. I guess I’m just very thankful for the all of interesting and kind people on here. So thanks :)

Python!
Honestly very hard for me to get into - I have ZERO coding knowledge and nothing I could really latch onto - knowledge transfer is how I learn. But https://futurecoder.io/ is great (after lots of Redditing)

The puffin is the latest addition to more than 180 known species—many of them sharks, corals, and other marine animals—that emit a luminous glow.
The fact that so many marine animals biofluoresce "tells us organisms are using light in ways we don't even see," John Sparks, curator of fishes at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City.

I read that happiness is when your expectations falls below the reality. A new mind project for April. Good prognosis.
