Oh thank god it's not just me who noticed. I think the lack of good moderation tools is contributing to the toxicity problem you're describing. I've noticed reporting doesn't really do anything too.

I've already made another account in another instance. I suggest you do the same if this place gets too much. Sign up approvals can take up to a week to get accepted

I like JustOneCookbook for Japanese food. Most of the ingredients on her recipes are easily available. I've tried her recipes and they taste good. She also has recipes for ingredients that aren't easily available so you can make your own.

There is someone developing an Apollo-like app for kbin. It's called Artemis and you can find more information about it here

I'm bored right now so I'll bite. I know arguing with you is bad cuz you shouldn't do things that make you angry yadda yadda. But I really want to tickle that brain of yours and what goes in it.

• Why do you think Meta specifically targeted the Fediverse?

• Given their history with Whatsapp and Instagram, how sure are you that they won't use EEE to kill the Fediverse?

• Considering the Fediverse is what people see as an escape to corporate social media, why is it unreasonable for people to be hostile to Meta's Threads?

• Why should we give Meta the benefit of the doubt when they're willing to sell out people's data even if it means destroying democratic institutions?

• I saw you mention earlier about lack of moderation. How exactly would federating with an additional 10M Meta Threads user affect moderation or lack thereof?

• How would the culture of Fediverse affect the sudden flood of Threads users unfamiliar with Fediverse?

• Do you think Meta created Threads in good faith given the recent events with Twitter?

Your thoughts on the matter please:

• Are you for or against federation with Meta?
• Would your family and friends on Threads affect your decision above?
• Do you trust Meta?

Peertube is a YT alternative that's also part of the Fediversse. Might wanna try it out

I would bet 100 dollars they want in on the Fediverse because they want to extinguish a competitor. They did it with Instagram and Whatsapp. They'll do it again.

I was gonna type out a really neat itemized response but I don't think you're discussing in good faith, just like Meta and Threads. I'd rather take a nap

Defederating means not interacting with the crowd Meta brings in. I have a bunch of other reasons but that's my main one. And before you suggest blocking, you can't possibly expect me to block all 10M of their users and the domain block is bugged. I know because I tried.

Besides, this place doesn't look like much of a barren wasteland since we're interacting with a bunch of people right now. I don't mind interacting with only weirdo nerds if they're nicer people. Quantity doesn't mean quality after all.

For the people who want to interact with Threads because of family and friends, they should just make an account there. Just don't let Meta destroy this small part of the internet.

Gotta love the fact Meta contributed to how my country got a murderer and the son of a dictator as presidents. Real great and trustworthy company there /s

No one really answered your question so I will. Tildes.net was being thrown around on reddit and it's a non-profit open source website.

Personally, I think the entirety of Fediverse is pretty resilient to hostile takeover as long as there are instances that will never federate with Threads. The Fediverse might be split into two though.

Besides the whole "Meta being skeevy" thing, the type of people they bring are not people who you want to federate with.

What if the first twin to come out was on Feb 29 and the second twin came out on March 1st? Who would be older?

EU my beloved

The Erfurt latrine disaster, or as wikipedia calls it, the deadly fecal incident. A bunch of nobles drowned in excrement because the floor they were standing on collapsed.

Clutching my team in a 1v4 with a ghost pistol gun in Valorant. My entire team was cheering me on in the chat. It was very memorable
