@transscribe.bsky.social MAGA fascists showing up on Masodon will very quickly find themselves contending with trans catgirl sysadmins. Just in general, not as moderators. #KeepMastodonWeird
#KeepMastodonWeird needs to be a thing.
@alexeheath We can and should shut out Meta if that's how they want to play ball. They're guests in our gardens, not the other way around. They don't get a say in how we operate. If they don't like it? They can de-federate. #keepmastodonweird

@atomicpoet @craigmaloney @gruber

I don’t get Mastodon users. When tech people say things that are basically accurate, supporters get mad. Island, misfit, and zealotry should all be good things? Being the anti-Facebook (or antitwitter or anti whatever) is necessarily going to mean being weirdos - ie not the same as the other social media.
And even “loser” - if it’s understood to merely mean “less popular” - should be good thing?
Why are Mastodon supporters mad at Gruber?

@haubles Great overview of the issues & possible solutions! #Mastodon #KeepMastodonKind #KeepMastodonWeird

Reactions to Mastodon For Dummies I've seen range from "I need this!" to "This is the end."

As a recent migrant to Mastodon myself, I have great respect for those who created this space and culture. As Mastodon grows, we need to keep that spirit.

To me, the Fediverse is a revolution, and we need every new recruit! A book won't bring in any new people -- but it can be a necessary orientation (boot camp?) for many people who are Mastodon-curious.

When Facebook and twitter took over from bebo and MySpace where people complaining about missing features? I don’t remember it being the case… why is this so different ?
