The thing that people see an issue with, is the fact that a lot of people use it to "harass" others in front of their followers as if to say "laugh at this fool". However, if this is truly the "open" web, that's just gonna be a thing.

I hope they eventually make it an official feature as well, but for now, most third party apps have it built-in.

Social Media: a place where people block you so you can't reply to their misinformation to inform people that it's wrong.

#SocialMedia #Fedi #Fediverse #Mastodon

 

To people complaining about the Nostr bridge today, (the one that's been here for years now) you DO know that there's no way to tell what anyone is doing with your public posts, right?

There's even a RSS feed that cannot be turned off for EVERY Mastodon account that anyone can read and you'd never even know...

If you want privacy, post privately. If you're posting publicly, you have no expectation of privacy.

@[email protected] I don't find "season" content where they try to use "fear of missing out" as a tactic to get people to play, as fun.๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I prefer to have all content available to me and let me choose what I want to do instead of them force feeding it to me.

 

And the enshittification of Elder Scrolls Online has begun.๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ˜’

Fedi Dev Tip: (social.beaware.live)
 

Fedi Dev Tip:

Develop features that you say you would for some time instead of implementing crap nobody wants or asked for.

Any Fedi Dev that implements privacy ruining age verification crap will not succeed. I promise.

Do better.

Looking at you, Sharkey...๐Ÿ˜’

By the way, where's that "Mastodon API" feature that you've advertised for the past year?๐Ÿคจ

After a year and a half of being on Fedi, I'm still seeing people on an open communication platform recommending others block open communication across platforms (bridges).

Do you know what the Fediverse IS?!?!๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

If you post an image I like and don't use alt text even after I've asked, you are giving me permission to download and re-upload the image with alt text.

Just saying.

Use alt text so I can boost your post or I will.

The Melon Men wholesome group is gaining a lot of steam in the 2b2t community! More and more users are joining our pledge to make 2b2t a less toxic place!

Anarchy doesnt equal being an asshole.

@[email protected] ๐Ÿ˜ญI literally cried when I found out. I don't wanna lose more friends.

I even made his Minecraft skin a part of me since he'd been gone.

His skin is on the left, my new skin is on the right.

A pixelated character wearing a blue shirt with a watermelon design, brown pants, and a black mask. The character has a short brown hairstyle and a green and black pixelated pattern on the sleeves.

Sooo....holy shit. (social.beaware.live)
 

Sooo....holy shit.

When you're playing games with your friends and having fun, it takes you out of reality for a bit and lets you forget about real life for awhile.

However, sometimes things happen that take you back to reality and show you that life is still very real.

Last week, my 2b2t group co-leader went AWOL and we had no idea what happened.

It turns out he was in the hospital and then we didn't know why until yesterday. He showed back up and revealed he had been in a horrific car accident which threw him and a friend from the vehicle, suffering multiple injuries. Unfortunately another friend of his that was also in the car didn't make it.๐Ÿ˜”

We're so thankful he pulled through and was able to talk to us yesterday. I feel so horrible for his friend though.๐Ÿ˜ญ

This is pretty much me with Fedi. Can't hold hobbies to save my life. Pretty sure I've dropped one tonight. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I've been here for almost a year and half now. There's been ups and downs but I've always been here and will continue to be here until this place isn't.๐Ÿซถ

Seems like the new Mastodon version is a must skip for those of us who like actual information about notifications...๐Ÿ˜’

Soo that's what I'll be doing. Skipping it.

Still looking for an alternative that doesn't require Linus Torvalds to personally come to your house and install it himself, but that's currently not a thing. Need Linus Torvalds or the equivalent for pretty much everything.๐Ÿ˜ฉ

@[email protected] Well I'm technically an admin of my own instance, so if it could live on my own instance and report like a normal user and not use the "forward to original instance" that'd be just fine. I got blocked by Eugen Rochko for suggesting such a thing.๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (3 children)

@[email protected] I've been begging for something official that could just report it to me and nobody else. Like a personal automatic reporting system for posts that i might wanna check out based on keywords like regex.

 

It sure would be nice to have some automated reporting by keywords right about now....you know, the thing I was explicitly told was NOT gonna happen...๐Ÿคฌ

@[email protected] I forgot to tag you. Here's my thoughts. ๐Ÿ‘†

Overall good experience. There's still some random crashes that I can't reproduce effectively enough to help you solve them.๐Ÿ˜ฌ They seem to happen sometimes when I open the details of a post but it's not often enough to ruin the experience for me. Overall very good app.

I do suggest you come up with some exclusive features for your premium model and don't return to locking posting behind it, that was what initially turned me off from the app but since then, I've enjoyed it overall.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

@[email protected] he seems to have removed that.

As far as I can tell, you can post freely now, though he might change it down the line...๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Ivory also costs a fee, but it does have an overall more full featured product.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

@[email protected] not much we can do when you know they were gonna take over the whole protocol.

I'm just a single person wanting to talk to people on those platforms. Defederating them wouldn't have stopped them from doing anything they're doing or plan on doing.

@lonelyowl13 @pixelworld_ai if it was normal art that takes hours or days to complete, I can see wanting to earn money from it, but yeah, AI art isn't really worth that unless you do a lot of editing to make a final product.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (4 children)

@pixelworld_[email protected] I got one subscriber, and that's the devs...๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I appreciate them, but I posted 1 thing there and it's just saying that I don't know what to post there.๐Ÿ˜‚
