pretty impressed by fediverse, the technology is cool and there's a nice social atmosphere. seems like most instances are either libtards, heavily /pol/-influenced, or pedos though. would be nice to see less uniformity

@exis7enz we used to have more "chill"/shitpost instances on the "dark fedi" but it's mostly politispergs now unfortunately

@exis7enz The fediblock list essentially re-created the Twitter bubbles, just decentralized.

@PunishedD it almost makes me want to make my own instance. I would be a benevolent mastodon jannie.

@exis7enz @PunishedD please do we need more instances

@exis7enz @PunishedD >mastodon
Why would you do that to yourself?

Anyway yeah I recommend muting anyone that posts twitter screenshots, it's a strict improvement.

@exis7enz @PunishedD Feel free to ask questions if you decided to make your own.

@phnt @PunishedD @exis7enz

@Zergling_man @PunishedD @exis7enz I'll post the rare one (procured elsewhere, left the site due to idiocy) that I find funny or especially interesting, but I try not do it very often lol.

@Witch_Hunter_Siegfried @exis7enz @PunishedD IIRC you've said something like that before so I unmuted you and it lasted like 2 days tops

@Zergling_man @PunishedD @exis7enz @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried the only xitter-app screenshots i post are t. me, back when i still used it.

@HatkeshiatorTND @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried @exis7enz @PunishedD Good example: I'm not interested in whatever that other faggot has to say, and I don't really care to see people dunking on fags either.
And, more to the point, it still doesn't federate.

@cassidyclown @exis7enz cyberia stands as the last pillar of comfy chillposting

@HatkeshiatorTND @PunishedD @exis7enz @Zergling_man @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried you're an even worse faggot, because you actually think your posts are good enough to beg for engagement on twitter, but not good enough to post on here. you're actually subhuman trash.

@pernia @PunishedD @exis7enz @Zergling_man @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried i posted that before i ever knew the fediverse existed. i joined fedi the second i learned of it, several months after my twitter was shoah'd

@HatkeshiatorTND @PunishedD @exis7enz @Zergling_man @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried still. twitter screenshots are HARAM, ALL OF THEM

@pernia @PunishedD @exis7enz @Zergling_man @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried i posted 25 more just to spite you.

@HatkeshiatorTND @PunishedD @exis7enz @Zergling_man @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried fuck u pal

@pernia @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried @exis7enz @PunishedD @HatkeshiatorTND I'm pretty sure there's someone on fedi who does repost their old stuff from twitter, and tbh, that's even faggier

@Zergling_man @HatkeshiatorTND @PunishedD @exis7enz @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried its very gay

@pernia @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried @exis7enz @PunishedD @HatkeshiatorTND btw

@Zergling_man @HatkeshiatorTND @PunishedD @exis7enz @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried wut is dis

@pernia @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried @exis7enz @PunishedD @HatkeshiatorTND Apparently I muted you, and I basically only mute for one reason...

@Zergling_man @HatkeshiatorTND @PunishedD @exis7enz @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried for rape?

@pernia @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried @exis7enz @PunishedD @HatkeshiatorTND No, twitter screenshots.
Though I also tend to mute people posting jewtube screenshots, on the same logic.

@Zergling_man @HatkeshiatorTND @PunishedD @exis7enz @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried fak. i may or may not have posted a funi thumbnail i saw on my feed, mb

@pernia @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried @exis7enz @PunishedD @HatkeshiatorTND At some point I need to just start over and make them like 1yr mutes or something.
And then just auto-ignore *@poa.st

@Witch_Hunter_Siegfried @PunishedD @exis7enz @Zergling_man Claymore?

@Zergling_man @PunishedD @exis7enz I did leave Twitter, the problem is screenshots are quite common in the other places I puruse so occasionally spread them lol.

@Witch_Hunter_Siegfried @exis7enz @Zergling_man I try to post natural organic free range grass-fed antibiotics-free KF screenshots, but sometimes Twitter contaminates them too.

@cassidyclown like I want to politicspost, but I'm not a fan of people setting things off limits. I will 100% get banned for criticizing jews or LGBT or something if I go on one of the normie instances, but get the feeling people in the "free speech zone" are going to sperg out at me for appreciating juche or not being racist

@exis7enz @cassidyclown they'll get mad at you just for being a furry or they'll try not to horny post about it

@Witch_Hunter_Siegfried @exis7enz @PunishedD This is why I call you hobbyless.

@Zergling_man @PunishedD oh is pleroma better, interesting

@exis7enz @PunishedD Mastodon is modelled after twitter, and it shows. Twitter was never good, it was a dumb idea from the outset and it's still a dumb idea now.
Pleroma was basically "hey fedi is pretty cool but why the fuck would you copy twitter in anything?"
*That said*, these days I actually find it hard to recommend pleroma, either, primarly because it depends on postgres, which is such a piece of shit that arch just keeps two copies of it in repos at all times to deal with it.
Without actually having used them, I'm more inclined to recommend snac2 (php though) or epicyon (python though), but there is also always misskey and its 50 million forks (none of which I recommend, because forks die, that's what they do). Misskey is good if it is important to you to have a setting on user accounts to add cat ears to their avatar.
Notably pleroma mimics mastodon's client-server API so it just picks up mastodon clients for free, but a lot of those tend to just assume things rather than actually check what the server reports, so you tend to get limited experience even on pleroma instances. However, many clients also support misskey API, and that tends to check server settings. Occasionally they copy that behaviour to masto side.

@Zergling_man @PunishedD pleroma does sound best out of those aside from tardwrangling postgres. might be easier using a containerized instance or Nix or something

@exis7enz @PunishedD postgres' bullshit isn't solved so easily, or rather, the easiest way to solve it is echo IgnorePkg = postgresql >> /etc/pacman.conf

@exis7enz consequences of being banned on all other forms of social media - there are people with nuanced positions that will hear you out but yes a lot of retards will just dogpile. Having lots of different instances where different "cultures" can be nurtured does alleviate that somewhat. Unfortunately just about all the "grey fedi" instances are extremely gay - I only say "unfortunately" because there should be more variety.

@exis7enz @cassidyclown who cares if people sperg, just mute them. the problem with the mastodon side is they gang up to mass-block people on hearsay, which you can't work around

@Zergling_man @PunishedD @exis7enz
>primarly because it depends on postgres, which is such a piece of shit that arch just keeps two copies of it in repos at all times to deal with it.
Filtered by the DB :D

If you run Arch on your servers, I think you are genuinely insane and need help. The reason why there's always two versions is literally only for upgrades between major versions which you barely have to think about.

Anyways, snac2 is nice, but the codebase is hacky and handling completely arbitrary free-form data in C is a recipe for disaster waiting to happen. Especially with the custom built JSON parser. If you want a small single-user instance I would also recommend Mitra besides Pleroma, but that also uses Postgres. GoToSocial does sqlite, but is such an annoyance to federate with that I don't recommend it just based on that.

@cassidyclown @exis7enz what is a "grey fedi" instance?

@exis7enz @cassidyclown not being racist is a personal flaw that's 100% fixable, you just have to put in a little bit of work

@dps910 @exis7enz instances that moderate a bit more than dark fedi but don't defederate everyone like the "walled garden"/normie instances do

@phnt @exis7enz @PunishedD >If you run Arch on your servers, I think you are genuinely insane and need help.
Filtered by arch :D

>The reason why there's always two versions is literally only for upgrades between major versions which you barely have to think about.
I update rarely enough that it's effectively every single time. I have a folder, /root/niggers that just contains snippets of how to deal with programs that are determined to be niggers, I created it for diaspora and postgres specifically, now it also addresses mongo and conduit.

@dps910 @phnt @exis7enz @PunishedD Back to afrika country winnigger

snac2 (php though)

Isn’t snac2 C?

@neet @PunishedD @exis7enz OH SHIT I'M THINKING OF BUGLE MY BAD

@Zergling_man @PunishedD @exis7enz TBF it’s kinda hard when here at least all of the hobbies are over ran by fags lol, that’s why I mostly stay in Chudish circles, one of the few places without ‘em.

@dps910 @PunishedD @exis7enz @phnt @Zergling_man why wouldn't they? arch just works.

@Witch_Hunter_Siegfried @PunishedD @exis7enz @Zergling_man >this image conveys an amusing and true idea, oh wait it's a twitter screenshot time to delete it!

@nigger @PunishedD @exis7enz @Witch_Hunter_Siegfried Just s teal things from them.

@Zergling_man @PunishedD @exis7enz @nigger But I can't exactly steal from a screenshot lol.

@benis_redux @cassidyclown racism is jew-coded

@exis7enz @cassidyclown good, that's a start

@sun @cassidyclown oh true, at least a block feature is more convenient than anonymous websites.
