#feditips: if you filter for "RT" you don't see any posts from people who have set up an account here and just crosspost from the fowl app without bothering to interact or talk to people on Mastodon.

Starting to think, with a heavy heart, that a LOT of the people who set up accounts here but are just feeding stuff through from the fowl app are going to get a BIG culture shock when the fowl app actually does die because they've made no effort to make the change :(

Like that idiot journalist who did that long screed the other day pearl clutching about how people could block him (they always could, he just didn't notice) and admins could read his DMs (they always could, he just didn't notice)

"OMG DO NOT USE MASTODON IT'S SO SHOCKING THE ADMINS CAN DO ALL THE STUFF THAT EVERY ADMIN OF EVERY WEBSITE I'VE EVER BEEN ON CAN DO BUT THEY'RE /HONEST/ ABOUT IT!!1!!! eleventy1!!!1!"

What a knobhead.
