Someday, when I submit a case-study-based qualitative research paper, reviewers will not ask for quantitative evidence (e.g. "quantify qualitative data"). Today is not that day. 🫠

@bsky.app really needs a way to bookmark or save things for later reference. Having to "like" everything (especially with a ❤️) doesn't work for me when I just intend to save some things for later reading or future reference (e.g., news or articles) vs. actually liking some things (e.g., cool art)
