OP: I’m enjoying using Signal for messaging!
flossdingus at fosstodon dot social: You fool. You utter incompetent. I can’t believe you’d use Signal when LibreSquirt is right there.

hi, this is home base now.

purging social media apps, officially done with twitter & threads as of today.

i'll be on here, fosstodon, and linkedin sharing data things and trying to build meaningful relationships.

hoping this is a more positive space 💛

In a completely unsurprising turn of events, yet another admin of a Mastodon instance has decided to step down after receiving literally years of abuse

Volunteers run social media services are hard to run, even more when swaths of your core userbase is the typical Mastodon idiotic extremist

Accidentally blocked Fosstodon trying to block a user on it.... that's probably fine tbh

so fosstodon huh

it's like centralising your identity onto something you can't control and trust is not a good idea lol

It's definitely more complex, but I've found BlueSky + Mastodon to be a pretty perfect combo. BlueSky for more mainstream, purely public feeds, and Mastodon for more niche groups with focused preferences (i.e. my main acct is on fosstodon.org). Mastodon is supposed to be more messy, and that's OK.

Fediverse Report #114 - This week's #fediverse news:

- Drama around a Fosstodon moderator, leading to the admins of the Fosstodon server stepping down. I take a closer look on what this says about how instance selection works on the fediverse, and why this means more servers should have a […]

Social Media 2023:
Facebook: Wisst ihr noch, damals...
Twitter: Braucht wer Invite Codes?
Bluesky: Kennt ihr jemanden, der Invite Codes braucht?
Mastodon: Überleg ja schon, ob ich nicht zur Fosstodon-Instanz wechsle
Instagram: Katzen
Threads: Hahaha, also was genau macht man da jetzt?

Fosstodon really pisses me off.

Anytime I try to move to a Fedi site, I have to double-check to see if that site ACTUALLY connect to Fosstodon.

They're nearly as bad a Mastodon Art.

You do not, make the Fediverse, fun.

Imagine all the artists landing on a big art server only to discover that the admin has some beef with both furries and LGBTQ+ people and has locked you away from them. Imagine being a FOSS dev and landing on Fosstodon only to have the same problem. And yet there is nothing wrong with FOSS or art.

It turns out the two historical admins of Fosstodon are done

It’s sad as Fosstodon was the instance where I really got to know how Mastodon and the open social web work

But I 100% understand their decisions

Oh ffs, the guy in charge of the "FOSStodon" Mastodon instance just made a blog post titled "On Virtue Signalling" with just about every tired "cancel culture", "pick your battles", "separate the art from the artist" right-wing talking point crammed into a big turd. Ugh.

I constantly got replies from fosstodon people who violate like 5 of these rules at the same time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The “rules” of one of the most popular servers, Fosstodon. Argument to be made about just joining another server but culture did seem to be pervasive regardless.

WTF happened on fosstodon

This just adds to the whole 'ghost town' feeling of Mastodon, with interactions artificially restricted even if you have an account, and signs of life such as 'likes' not being shared among instances.

I have a Fosstodon account, but its use is therefore extremely limited.
