I don't think Mastodon will fail. I like the people I've met here by and large, but I am still extremely concerned by the way defederation can work at the server level as opposed to the user level and it doesn't seem like most think this is a problem. I want to reach the wider world and vice versa without being invisibly prevented from doing so. Maybe this is selfish of me, but if I'm honest that's my use case for social media. I want news and information and discourse and while Mastodon is making strides, if the fediverse is just going to unilaterally cut off a huge part of the world, I will have a choice to make on where to have my main presence.

This article sums up the issues I have with the quite comprehensively. I want this to work out. I don't wan to go back to Musk's hellpit. I'm just becoming frustrated.

This is the typical "fuck you, I already got mine" attitude that enrages me about the wealthy and powerful.

Ugh seeing chatter about more high-level defederations. I've said my peace on this. If one thing is going to turn me off the fediverse it's this. If people I talk to who are completely innocent just vanish one day because someone starts getting philosophically irritated with their server admin what's the point.

I'll say again - there needs to be a client-to-client model somehow where the fediverse servers are nothing more than data relays and can e routed around if one or more go down. Then people can choose for themselves what's spam / dangerous and what isn't and block accordingly.

Live action looks great. Buggy is terrifying the best way. I can't wait.

"Meta is going to launch its own federated system."

"Let's get our lists together to block anyone federating with them."

Right, because preventing people who want to talk to their friends on other platforms is the way to make decentralised social media work, yeah? I thought the whole point of interooperability was to, you know, interoperate? And then if you need to block, actually block the bad people doing bad things, not the entire universe of people that just happen to be using the same carrier as them either due to lack of tech savvy or their own network lock in effect?

This is basically collective punishment and does not in any way entice other people to leave Big Social. Hoe can we convince them to come over if we're blocked from talking to them in the first place?

God maybe some of us aren't having children because we can't bloody afford it because society has been systematically ruined fiscally, environmentally and morally by the Tories and who wants to bring a child into a facist, toxic state in poverty?

I have to wonder something.

I know Billionaires are greedy, and generally, at the minimum probably sociopathic in order to have achieved their status.

I just find it interesting that not ONE of them has tried to make a gambit for historical immortality by allocating even ONE of their billions to trying to solve a hunger crisis. It could be a massive PR campaign / smokescreen/ charitable cover for them.
Is there some tacit agreement of the members of that class that none of their members would try to upset the larger global status quo in such a way?

I mean when you have Elon basically just TEXTING Bezos and casually asking for $2bn like it was a cuppa, it can't be that they really care about the value of a dollar.

This may or may not accurately describe a seduction technique that I may have applied at some point.
