The coffee is angry at me today. First the grinder sprays grounds everywhere while i was pouring it into the coffee maker. Its safety switch which is supposed to keep it turned off when the lid is open, had gotten jammed with grounds and turned on spontaneously.

Some really useful benefits of raising visibility/sorting of "important" posts:
1) Increases the likelihood they'll get the audience they need/deserve
2) Increases engagement generally, by pushing utility earlier
3) Makes it easier to *not* engage continually, and push Mastodon usage to personally-appropriate times of day/week. As an ADHD sufferer, FOMO-free conservation of attention is HUGELY beneficial.
