Just of note:
I'm over at @Mycroft primarily. That's Mycroft at meow.social, because the link might not work.

I moved a while back, to gain access to the larger fediverse, and since haven't really done much with this account.

Reminder that Awoo.Space's primary goal is to operate an instance that deliberately maintains a small whitelist of instances they federate with, as a "safe space" (my words) against potential abuse out there in the fediverse.

It's not here as "the furry server". While a lot of furries are here, there are many other furry-oriented and furry-friendly instances out there that are more connected.

I'm lucky enough to not need the anti-abuse for my primary account.

Hey Awoo.spacers!

I just learned that awoo.space defederated with my main instance's account, @Mycroft. So if you were following it and stopped seeing updates, that's why.

Tech people: If only we could get users to modify their behavior just a little bit we could save an enormous amount of work and needless complexity! Why can't they be more aware of their own self-interest?!

Me, a janitor, making 1/4 their salary or less: please throw trash inside the trash can and pee inside the toilet, and not behind, underneath, or five feet away from either.

Techies: ugh, that's an unreasonable ask, that's what we pay you for

Me: hypocrite much?
