Some hours of reflection and distraction have only solidified my decision: whatever the solution is to my desire for a microblogging platform that encourages thoughtful discussion and is home to the broadest and most diverse possible range of interests and personalities...mastodon.social is NOT it. I have had some doubts previously, doubts I was willing for a time to set aside, but the experience of my friend @voz has exhausted my patience.
@Monophylos @voz Perhaps shitposter.club or sealion.club or maybe even freezepeach.xyz might be worth a try. They are right wing but they also greatly encourage discourse and discussion of politics and morality like you seem to be talking about.
@johny You are, I hope, joking.
@Monophylos You complain then refuse to try alternatives. Fuck off, you're exactly what you're complaining about.
@johny I don't need to bite into the visibly rotten apple before deciding if it's good to eat. Thanks for your contribution.
@Monophylos The quitters are dying and the only other left-wing site is mastodon. You might as well block be if you complain and won't do shit to solve your problem.
@johny @monophylos [citation needed]

Quitters have been around since 2010 and don't have any technical issues that would stop them from going another 7 years.
@clacke @monophylos @johny Good one! Just that it would be nice to see it #Python-based and included in #FreedomBox and Debian/Ubuntu repositories! ;)
@oplife @monophylos @johny In my Copious Spare Time (tm). You will see.
@clacke @monophylos @johny Well I am a little surprised I haven't seen it yet. I've seen a lot of quips from you about code, not producing code! ;) Maybe your quips about code could be automated #Git quips from progress on the Python-version? <3
@oplife Hehe, I would like to produce more public code too. I will have my chance in the coming months. ;-)
