It’s more like homemade cornbread that other people have made that I’ve tried.
I personally grew up on Jiffy Mix, but when I go to a family friend’s house where the Grandma is southern and makes scratch cornbread with 0 sweetness to it, and it’s the scratchiest thing on the planet, I make sure to make it sweeter for my tastes. I never want to make sad, unsweet cornbread.
I use Matrix, but like a lot of the Fediverse (I know it’s technically a different protocol, but still), it’s not normie friendly. If it were more plug n play it might take off. I just don’t look forward to when they’ll have ads or start making us pay. It’s so tiring shuffling from platform to platform because of some greedy CEO.
