I think that illustrates how messy this whole federation thing. but it’s a mess that I somewhat welcome as that’s the beauty in it if that makes sense.

another example that’s similar like truth social that uses activitypub but a lot of the fediverse defederate with them is Threads by Meta, their own version of Twitter.

I like galfoy more. I’m going tk start using it. malfoid just sounds wrong and have that incel terminology attached to it. that’s why I thought at first of was some culture war shit at first but instead it’s just some genderbent thing artists and fanfic writers like to do that got trendy and viral.

Yeah at the very best it becomes dull when they grew in sub members count. of course the worst outcomes are it became flooded with stupid memes, whining; if it’s something gaming related massive tribalism and Gamerism (iykyk), or larping ass mentality with gatekeeping tendencies and know-it-all way of posting.

I’m just mad that r/manybaggers have become boring of the same 5 brands being bandied about, and miss the more varied bags from 2016 (ish) from posters back then. even the mods is now not posting much, and I had a great time conversing with them back then.

I’m glad that my gacha addiction of choice, Nikke, is here and there’s some regulars. we don’t talk much and only posts fan art most of the time, but hey, at least it’s not as memey or whiny as the equivalent 3 subreddits

I usually stick to more low stress low “intellectual” posts to comment on. Like this post for example I usually wouldn’t comment because it has a higher chance of getting barbed comments. I definitely do not comment in political posts lol.

I want the good part of reddit circa 2015 - 2020, I think. At least that’s around time when I joined reddit and was active. They’re kind of medium - large size back then. Plenty of small to medium-small communities with niche interests and inclusive generally. Have sane rules and moderation

At least that’s how I remember it. Rose tinted glasses and nostalgia, on top of whatever side effect I got post covid time.

It’s a big shadow over my head for every time I want to post. Makes me always reread what I drafted. Then at the end if there’s a remote, chance it can bring in an argument, I just delete the draft and not post.
