“Only funding new projects” is the curse of the charity sector. You set up something exciting which gets lots of local involvement, then you pull the rug from under it, leaving the community feeling even more disillusioned and abandoned than ever.
Funders, step up: if something is worth starting, it’s worth ongoing support.

I think about “engagement” differently on Mastodon. Before the Elon-gation of Twitter I had more than 12k5 followers there (I left at that point!) Here I have fewer than a quarter of that number, but I feel far more engaged. People scrolling past one’s Tweets without even glancing at them counted as being ‘seen’ — a meaningless statistic!
