Yet more private feedback that it is disconcerting that I talk about my medical situation within the same thread as technical commentary.

@mollydotcom I've since seen the same cycle on YouTube, and now on Twitter.
@mollydotcom These tools gain currency as channels for publishing personal expression, and then turn into avenues for marketing.
@mollydotcom and goodness knows, if we're going to be marketed to, why, we expect all that messy stuff to be excised. 😤
@mollydotcom its as if some people can't tolerate anything that might puncture their personal filter bubble.
@mollydotcom sorry, didn't mean to derail, but this particular form of willful ignorance that compels telling people to shut up upsets me.
@mollydotcom so from me at least, I appreciate that you share yourself as a whole person instead of a polished facsimile. Please don't stop.
@mollydotcom Share what's in your heart. It's good for your soul (and others!). People can unfollow if they don't like it.

@mollydotcom because god forbid that you are an actual person, with actual feelings and needs. 🔥

@mollydotcom nonsense. You're tweeting as a person & a person going through problems. If people can't appreciate that they should unfollow

@mollydotcom you've done a huge amount for the online community over the years Mol. If people can't support you now there's something wrong
