Stop platform hate, create or collaborate

The isn't perfect, it's the best solution we have

You can make a difference, simply by participating in a project/platform and suggesting ideas or reporting bugs

You don't need to know how to code to make this place better, but if you want to make a bigger impact, it does help

We need to stop shitting on fedi platforms like Mastodon and see the fediverse as the competitor to centralized social platforms

Did some basic testing.

  1. Curious about the abilities / limitations of the software tools.

  2. Found that media-focused* and aggregator** tools can post out to other tools, but can't follow them in return.

  3. Non-media-focused** tools can follow basically anyone, but can't post to media-focused / aggregator apps.

Can you imagine what the would look like now if the response to Gab had been "Admins don't need to block these instances, individual users can just choose whether or not to apply a user-level block (mute) themselves"?
