During my one year activity on the #Fediverse I've now seen at least four instance admins quitting from being an admin or shutting down their server. Half of these cases were admins being dickheads and the rest of them were mostly about users being dickheads leading admin getting burned out.

Both outcomes are unfortunate, but the latter makes me sad. Why do we have to harass and doxx an admin here for such pseudetical reasons like extensive open text search feature? I don't get humans sometimes.

I repeat: We are not free from toxicity on the Fediverse. Be kind. Make a chance.

I really don't get why people do that to each other, it's a volunteer service. Admins are doing this out of the goodness of their hearts & on their spare time.

We as the userbase should be kind to one another & thank the team that runs your instance.

If you want something or report an issue, do so politely, it will be fixed, you won't die if it's dead. Shit happens.

As for the full text search issue, if your instance doesn't have it, move to another one that does, don't threaten ppl.
