@geniusmusing Yeah. :-( I think the #blockwars folks may have indirectly caused this. There are people who file complaints against client apps that don’t build in blocklists against specific servers whose moderation policies they dislike.

@vegos I agree. To most organizations, their primary concern is reach. So they congregate on big #corpocentric #socnets, even when the central corporation running things is actively hostile to their point of view. Then they're butthurt when their accounts are shadowbanned. Years ago, I tried to persuade some local Black churches and ethic-focused organizations to join !GNUsocia… -

I got lots of birthday notices in my inbox from JD. I consider it an example of "All information that you collect, you will eventually store. All information that you store will eventually be misused." Why? At the time I and most of my contacts joined, #Diaspora was _the privacy-centric network_. Birthdays were not going to be used to trigger alerts and e-mails to tell everyone about them. But here we are. -

The #SARS-CoV-2 virus, the #coronavirus that causes #COVID-19, blocks one arm of the body's anti-virus defenses, while stimulating the other. This unique behavior allows unhindered replication while causing inflamation.

@gargron wants to replace the current scope limited #Mastodon fake direct messages with real DMs, E2E encrypted using OLM (an implementation of Signal’s encryption). Good. People have sent personally identifying information and financial data across fake DMs, not aware that others could accidentally see the contents. Bad: Scope limited posts are going away entirely.

@simsa03 That's for my account on the #Diaspora network, where most of my real contacts have left years ago, leaving dozens of spammy newsbots squatting on my subscribed hashtags and flooding out real people. -

I've been 'ignoring' newsbots (and one person that often posts the identical thing from 3-4 different accounts) that pollute the #Linux hashtag on #Diaspora.
That's cleaned up my timeline quite a bit, but it will probably be stagnant now. -

LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1) {3EB165E0-5BB1-45D2-9E7D-93B31821F864}
So many #newsbots / #bots squat on the #Diaspora "Linux" hashtag. Most of them have multiple incarnations on different instances, so each post may appear in the stream 2-3 times. No wonder I only log in about once every 2-3 months.
(I'm using "ignore this poster" to manage the most frequent posting bots. They seem to make hashtags useless, because they pollute the stream with peripherally-connected junk articles.) -

@musicman #LockedOut used say I'm a #Ruby expert ... because I filed some issues on #Diaspora. -

#GPlus is / was a non-federated clone of Diaspora. When GPlus opened, I immediately knew how to use it because I already used #Diaspora.
Unfortunately, D*'s development stagnated once its focus on confining posts to a selected audience was no longer unique. -

Honestly, I would prefer to use #Diaspora over the "15 columns" Fediverse server, but whenever I log into my D* account, almost all my contacts have been silent for years and my stream is full of posts from newsbots squatting on the tags I've subscribed to. Whenever there is a real post, it is usually some political thing, rather than something I actually want to see. (No, simp…
