@wakest Mastodon may have started down the enshitification route and heading toward being forked.

@wise_pancake

@alyaza I helped them out with a paid subscription. Hopefully more people will.

@deadsuperhero That’s disappointing.

@ernest After 1.0 is released, please take some time off. And try to delegate. Sending you some funds! Hang in there buddy.

@aeternum

@seasonone Hopefully it fails after killing of shitter first.

@curt Friendica

@ernest Thanks for everything you and the team do. I just sent you a few beers. :) https://www.buymeacoffee.com/kbin for others wanting to contribute.

@giallo I like the “to quote myself from earlier‘, so I will as well.

I want to address the uproar in the Fediverse about preemptively blocking the Meta ActivityPub product. And whether it should be at the instance or individual user level. A variety of reasons for and against this have been given.

At the moment, I would go with the latter. But no matter the arguments, the reason every single Fediverse user should block it is that Meta is a box of c*nts.

They have always been a box of c*nts. And they will always be a box of c^nts. Meta should be trusted as far as I can kick Zuck. About six feet. They will immediately or eventually try to enshitify whatever product they launch. At that point, administrators should block them at the instance level.

Maybe I am wrong, but maybe the Easter Bunny is real.

Do I need to remind anyone these are the mofos greenlighting the spread of misinformation of all types, science denial, propaganda from the enemies of democracy, conspiracy theories from every lunatic on earth, election stealing, suicide instigation for teenagers, and the mass genocide of Muslims in Myanmar?
