on the internet, individual nodes can go down and that's okay. the network will typically re-route around those automatically, and it's one of the thing's greatest strengths

on mastodon, individual nodes will block or suspend random-ass people / other instances, and the only thing you can do about it is pack up your whole fuckin life and move elsewhere, until another dipshit repeats it there / with another instance you're on, if you can even find a single instance that isn't part of this tangled network of arbitrary blocks/suspends (spoiler: you can't)

as much shit as i give bluesky and people who moved there, i sure as hell can't recommend mastodon or "the fediverse". sorry, a single government drone joined internet.farts, we're shutting that whole thing down for you. you had friends there? too bad. moderation is hard so we're outsourcing all of our instance admin to dramawarehou.se. you mean that might have been a bad actor all along? sacre bleu

absolute fucking joke

in reply to @xkeeper's post:

even limiting is like "ok great a handful of stuff just no longer works now". i was wondering why a friend's avatar and posts weren't showing up with "not available" and now i know

can i do anything about it? no, of course not

yyyyyyyyeah there is no winning this game, nevermind the nightmare that is maintaining your own instance (and paying for it). you're damned if you do, damned if you don't

“Sorry, you can’t follow Japanese artists because we have blocked the two servers they are mainly on, go somewhere else”

The somewhere elses that are for English speakers: (parrot the same thing)

Also the inability to change username is a joke, if this is such a trans-friendly and non-toxic Not-Twitter why didn’t they account for people who might transition or otherwise want or need to change usernames

Nonetheless I’m on masto anyway because it seems to have the least shitty privacy settings of any social media site that isn’t dead (Diaspora) or requires a legal name (Facebook). Bsky has 0 privacy options whatsoever and I recently found out how terrible running a private profile is on cohost — if you comment on the posts of people not following you, they won’t see your comment, and there’s no indication of this.
