@applecider @gargron Federation will always mean difference of opinion. "Social" means that we solve these differences by simply grouping with those we like.
Community-run, friendly instances will thrive and benefit from the federated nature of the network. -

@tuttle @resumer After fifteen years of unemployment, I'm really not feeling all this white male privilege you all are so anxious to attribute me with. -

@jimpjorps @rw Mastodon makes no effort to distinguish people communicating on other servers. -

@eris @purplehippo @augustus Likely another instance of "look at this place with all the Bad People! Lets go show them, fam!" As to where from, whothefuckknows, but probably HN given its not the first time that instance has gotten a bunch of deeply-charming people* from HN.
* may not actually be deeply-charming -

@eris @augustus SJWs flock to any service where they feel they can gain control. -

@verius @bob This is, ultimately, my over-arching concern with that bad behaviour coming out of one instance in particular. It's going to serve only to make people resistant to the idea of federation for fear of having to deal with this kind of unpleasantness. -

@bob A lot of that crowd seem to take "federating social media" as a license to bully other communities. -

@purplehippo Yeah, that's exactly the thing missing from the Fediverse experience for me. -

@verius @takeshitakenji If it get's that bad, we can just build an origins-blocklist.
Then we can build a wall around Mastodon, and make the Mastodons pay for it :^_ -

Of what use is federating software if you cultivate a community no one wants to associate with? -

@eris @sim I guess I'll go be emotional and tell them to fuck off then, that works for me too. -

@verius @takeshitakenji I can definitely understand the concern, however. -

@verius @takeshitakenji I really don't know what to think here, because you're basically trying to program around social problems, which rarely works. -

Mastodon was cool back in the early days but the community ruined it. Much like what happened to Tumblr. -

@sim @eris Beautiful thing about federated free software: If you don't like what's happening at one watering hole, you can choose another one, or even make your own!
