I hope nobody is getting too attached to this place. No "advocation of sexism", I guess that was the world's biggest problem right there, the "sexism advocates" everywhere with their weird advocacy. For me, there's no way I'm repeating the mistake of allowing "code of conduct warriors" to control my ability to access a platform I rely upon. https://mastodon.social/media/gqhCudWuVoetJw6OdE8

@psp not sure how any of this is "worse" than arbitrary ToS elsewhere?

@cemerick yeah so far imo in practice this place seems freer than twitter, which claims to be all about free expression. plus here it's federated so they literally can't kick you out completely @psp

@cemerick I wasn't comparing it to anywhere else, only saying I learned my lesson at twitter and I do not wish to invest time and energy into a platform which is advertising up front that they will go the way of twitter as soon as the mob gets loud enough.

@psp I see others running their own instances and federating. Seems like the best of all possible worlds, in both directions.

@psp @cemerick i don't mind some restrictions on racism, sexism etc, if judiciously applied - as long as i can still brutally insult anyone I please.
