People saying "Mastodon needs to include more marginalized people" to me just betrays a total lack of effort to even learn about who is working on the project. They assume if they say it's all cishet white men that they'll be right and saying to include marginalized voices is a generally agreeable thing to say to collect social capital and establish yourself as good when actually you're just being a jerk to unpaid trans women
@shel I've actually been amazed regards to the group of people who work on the project.
What I'm missing now, for my personal preferences, is more non-white people in my home TL, which is for myself to work on, partially. One follow at the time, one invite at the time.
