You

did you know that discord is, per twitter's new policy, not an alternative social media platform?

you should add me on discord (celeste#0666), where there will definitely be no discussion of alternative social media platforms

@me What counts as a platform they block? I can post decept.org on twitter freely, but your cele.st seems to run on mastodon, so is it considered banned or not?

@axiS do they not explicitly forbid mastodon

@me seems hard to check every domain name for which instance of which social media they are

@me they said mastodon, they didn't say whichever the fuck interface we might use next, but if we still federate with mastodon.social even indirectly, there's an enormous grey area in their rules

@me @axiS yes, there's a list in the new policy and Mastodon is on it. No links, no mentioning your handles on those other platforms, etc.

@squirreler @me What I'm essentially asking is, what is a mastodon? Am I on a mastodon right now? How far do we have to go to not be on a mastodon anymore?

@axiS @me Someone got banned who only seemed to be linking to their personal website, which mentioned where else to find them. Seems like we're playing six degrees of Mastodon now.
