@edh The silos, for all of their faults, make it relatively easy to quickly place whatever it is you are saying within reach of lots of people. As opposed to trying out different parts of the independent web, I could just use the silos and put my stuff out there; this would, in theory, reduce the amount of my time taken up by fiddling with settings.

It's a much smaller feeling when compared to my general dislike of the silos and hope that we embrace a web wherein we value smaller, more productive gatherings. But it doesn't go away, thus the "nagging".
