@adi@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net It’s worth bearing in mind that

I used to have a lot of hope for them but these two ingredients mean that enshittification is virtually inevitable.

I was introducing someone I know to #Mastodon a few years back, starting with:

“So let’s find a server that suits your niche interests. What are you looking for?”

…thinking that I knew all the fedi communities pretty well.

They responded cheekily “Is there a european-foreign-policy server?”

Of course I came up short, and they ended up making an account on a generalist server.

But fedi has grown a lot since!

So happy that eupolicy.social, respublicae.eu and social.netwo … ⌘ Read more

In-reply-to » I've only been using snac/the fediverse for a few days and already I've had to mute somebody. I know I come on strongly with my opinions sometimes and some people don't like that, but this person had already started going ad hominem (in my reading of it), and was using what felt to me like sketchy tactics to distract from the point I was trying to make and to shut down conversation. They were doing similar things to other people in the thread so rather than wait for it to get bad for me I just muted them. People get so weirdly defensive so fast when you disagree with something they said online. Not sure I fully understand that.

@prologic@twtxt.net attacking the person, not the idea. It’d be like if you said “yarn is better than mastodon because it isn’t push based” and someone who disagreed with you said “well you think that because you’re an idiot” or something like that.

I’m playing around with snac2, which I think @stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no mentioned on here, and I have to say it’s extremely easy to set up and it’s been pretty straightforward so far. I wanted to experiment with having a presence on the Fediverse without going through the process of picking Mastodon vs. Gnu Social vs. Friendica vs. …, and I wanted to self-host instead of picking an instance of one of those. For now I’m abucci@buc.ci, but no guarantees that will remain stable; I’m just testing for the time being.

**Now that @JoeSondow’s bot games like @EmojiSnakeGame are no longer going be free to play, I can only hope he will soon have mastodon versions of it running, and I will no longer have a reason to open twitter’s app often.

And no, paying for a verified account is not on the table.**
