Il 21,6% dei bambini iscritti alle scuole primarie di Roma, ha problemi a scrivere in corsivo. È quanto emerge da una ricerca condotta da Carlo Di Brina (dirigente di Neuropsichiatria infantile dell’Umberto I), Barbara Caravale (del Dipartimento di «Psicologia dei processi di sviluppo e socializzazione» della Sapienza) e Nadia Mirante (Unità di Neuropsichiatria dell’infanzia e dell’adolescenza del Bambino Gesù), e pubblicata sulla rivista Children nel febbraio del 2023.

In questo 21,6% rientrano anche bambini disgrafici o con disturbi più ampi, come per esempio il disturbo di coordinazione motoria.

La tanto citata tecnologia - tablet, smartphone e computer - ha invece un ruolo limitato nello sviluppo della capacità di scrivere in corsivo: “L’uso massiccio e continuato di dispositivi elettronici può certamente condurre allo sviluppo di disturbi come deficit d’attenzione, ma ha molta meno attinenza con la scrittura”.

    It is not a mastodon instance, it is a fork of mastodon. The proper thing to refer to it as is “a fork of mastodon”.

    Okay! 😀

    I dont mind you calling it “platypus soup” though i wonder what that is meant to convey…

    The definition “platypus soup” refers to something strange, something evolved in a different way and made up of different pieces.

    Many of the features we have QOTO was the first to develop, some we were the first to add to mastodon, others we borrowed from other platforms that set the standard.So im not sure QOTO is anymore of a “playpus soup” than any other fediverse software, we chose what features we wanted that were already out there, and added our own, thats all.

    Some fediverse software is “strange”, but qoto.org is “very strange”. Maybe only Bonfire is weirder (by the way, nice project… you’d like it!)
    To your knowledge, are there any other instances running the same qoto.org fork?

    What perplexes you about that post, I made sure to clarify and backup any claim I made with evidence and screenshots. Most people are upset about it because Eugen is usually very much the politician, so he generally has a good public image despite repeatidly making many questionable decisions behind the scenes where he has thrown instances under a bus just to appease the crowd. It works well for his agenda actually and usually causes people to come to his defense when someone calls him out.

    I am the administrator of three small instances of three different software: Friendica and Lemmy above all, but also Mastodon (albeit with a thematic instance: by the way, mine too is aimed at the world of research). You can well understand that I don’t appreciate all the Gargron choices and my least favorite is the positioning of Mastodon as the industry standard. However, I believe that your tolerance towards some free speech instances was a gamble that penalized your instance more than it improved its environment.

      People have asked about setting up our code before and I know for a time some people did run forks of QOTO,. I dont recall the instances or even they are still up though. That said I do know of many instances that have taken code from QOTO.

      As for our choice to let our users decide federation rather than the main admin, I dont disagree it was a gamble and has caused some to throw shade at us. However as I explained it came as adirect response and the at the request of our LGBTQ community. They made a clear argument why that choice was neccesary for their safety, and we decided their safety was the priority over any effect on public opinion. So while you arent wrong about your accessment of that choice I would argue it was still the correct choice.

      What is concerning is Gargron basically thought that decision, one in which our LGBTQ communities safety was prioritized over popular opinion, is one he felt punishing exclusively due to popular opinion (he was aware of our stance for years and approved of it right until people started to break out the cancel culture nonsense).
