@jb55 aw come on bud! if it becomes a problem we can spin up our own instance. for now this place seems way more free than twitter

I was actually wondering how hard that is... @five @jb55

@sixbitproxywax I'm going to want to find out fairly soon, for reasons @jb55 is thinking about. This place is great, but it also clearly has a heavy SJ-friendly demographic. I don't mind THEM, but THEY tend to mind people skeptical of SJ stuff, which I am

@jb55 so like as a defensive measure, if people in my "twitter tribe" had our own instance, it wouldn't matter, and we could still interact fine with the (current) main instance too @sixbitproxywax

@five @sixbitproxywax it will be interesting when SJ-heavy domains start blacklisting non-SJ domains. The tribal drama that results will be fun. exciting times.

@jb55 SHOULD resemble pure anarchy. In the "self-organization" sense, like the internet is/was @sixbitproxywax

@sixbitproxywax @jb55 the question will be whether we can avoid Linux fragmentation syndrome, bc social networks depend on network effects

@five kind of makes me want to dive into some network theory math to see how different scenarios play out @sixbitproxywax
