I know mastodon.social is seen as a detriment to some in the fediverse

But have you ever considered my story?

Built an audience around my new project @pixelfed

We take m.s for granted, a large part of the fediverse literally wouldn't exist unless @Gargron built a suitable GNU/Social successor.

The fediverse is quick to point fingers at Mastodon and Gargron, but thanks to him, you have a platform to do that on.

We love you big G, you are my hero ❤️

@dansup @pixelfed @Gargron the fashy mods, tho. The raging zionism, christofascism and suppression of any and every opinion that might expose those.

Very X. Much Musky. Such Zuck. How Dorsey.

Have you all considered that?

Strong supporter of #pixelfed. Not of m.s.

@[email protected] @dansup @pixelfed @Gargron I use mastodon.social and I'm wondering WTF you are talking about.

Edit: This person earned a block from me. Have a feeling this is just similar to the RWs who go to bluesky and complain about getting moderated. If there's a real issue at mastodon.social then I look forward to my permaban, but I'm not seeing it so far. Anyway, since I blocked the person to whom I've replied here any actual explanation will fall on deaf ears--literally--so don't bother.

@crazyeddie @dansup @pixelfed @Gargron Yup, just block and move on. Some people will never express gratitude for anything.

@joyo @dansup @pixelfed @Gargron Oh, I guess you DO get replies to threads you've replied to that you've blocked. I thought otherwise. Nevermind. :p

I usually don't bother to say anything but I thought someone might try to explain because there were others saying similar things. I didn't want to waste their time on something I'd never read.
