@Mschristinema The rules look solid, and I like the broader interests description. I’m trying to move my account right now, but having some snafus, possibly due to congestion on this instance.
@shengokai @timpanyu @chowleen @MikeJung Great info, thank you!
Any thoughts on zirk.us? I see several of my non-white connections on that server.
Boosts also very appreciated!

Match me an instance:

- non-white
- queer
- organizer/activism
- freelance writer
- fighting the right wing
- very low tolerance for oppressive BS

Do you like your instance? Is it well-moderated?

I appreciate all good-faith recommendations!

HEY HEY FRENZ on mastodon.social! You may want to MOVE to a new instance, very soon.

Why?  

Mastodon is a bunch of islands that can talk to each other. The smaller and more spread out we are, the easier things are to moderate. Horizontal scaling FTW!

All of you who fled that one site 🐤 ended up at mastodon.social for likely a few reasons. It was obvious, it was big, and it's where you saw a bunch of folks going.

But it has a long history of being poorly moderated, which means a LOT of instances are silencing or blocking it. Which means you're on the big island that SEEMS like it's "where everyone is", but in fact, it's a giant island unto itself (momentarily trending toward turning into a post-bird-site echo chamber), and huge swaths of the Fediverse don't talk to it, or even see it.

If you want the quality of interaction (and moderation!) Mastodon is known for, move thy funky buns to a smaller instance of cool folks you enjoy.

@texastribune @RobertDownen Yay! I’m a subscriber!
@jeff Need!
@esqueer SO slow this morning! And I’ve already started using Mastodon for work. 😬 I’m glad I migrated earlier rather than later!
