+I have no resolutions for 2024, as the last ones were dropped long before December.
+There is however one thing I wanted to do for a long time: to rely on Email more.

+So my project for 2024 is as simple as sending email.
+I will not use any other means (sigh, social media) to reach people I want to contact.
+Instead, I will use plain, old email.
+
+Last year one person (won't name publicly due to respect and privacy) emailed me, and we've been exchanging messages since then.
+It was the surprise of the year and I met a person I would never have a chance otherwise.
+I would like it to happen more, as this is a great growth experience.

+I'm not leaving [[https://emacs.ch/@mms][Mastodon]], but I will not approach people using it.
+Furthermore, I'd love to leave Discord and Messenger, but folks there are pretty stubborn :)
