Airchat seems really promising! Fun to test it today. The concept is based on voice messages, but not like Clubhouse. Far from it, actually.
The posts are actually spoken into as an audio message. Then, the audio message is converted to text. To consume content, you can either read or listen through the feed.
I love it. It's a bit unusual to speak messages among people, but at the same time, I just think of it as a kind of phone call.
"Hey, can you switch instances? Your admin favorited a joke that I didn't appreciate once. Might need to block you otherwise. Oh, and that crowdfunding platform you use? Back in 2006 they let an organization I don't personally align with use their platform. You should abandon that. Also, -"
Shhhh. Let people enjoy things. I am all for being socially conscious but we can't boycott everything. We are so tired. Please go outside.

Dear Low Quality Facts at mstdn social: We should all try to get along with each other by 'accepting each other' and NOT tolerating each other. No we cannot boycott everything that we find to be socially unacceptable. There is No Mastodon Instance that is perfect on the fediverse, naturally we all have great expectations that our Mastodon Instance should be better than all others. Our Instance is only as good as we individually and collectively make as account holder users. As long as we have good and fair administrators and moderation teams we will be okay.
We must keep in mind that Mastodon Instance Administrators and Moderation Teams are only human beings and make mistakes. So we should give them the same benefit of doubt that we would like to be afforded when we talk out of turn.
