Somebody gave Mastodon's official iOS app a 1-star review on the App Store because "there are too many Taiwan independence" [sic, translation]. That's a first! Also, Taiwan is a country.

@Gargron I live happily in Taiwan for over 13 years, This review just shows what a great platform Mastodon is @Gargron I came from China (also agreeing Taiwan is a country) and got used to and tired of such so called Chinese patriots (we call them pinky) spamming every service with such negative review bomb. On the flip side it's also an indication that Mastodon's growing popularity that those who grew under such severe censorship also learn about have access to at least some Mastodon instance though. @Gargron The app we developed for my union has a 1 star review from someone complaining their unions app sucks. (different union, different app). @Gargron Sooner or later any domain that contains "mastodon" or looks masto-ish will be blocked by china. Theoretically, a decentralized network cannot be blocked, but realistically, there are only limited number of servers running. As for now, mastodon.social and several major chinese-speaking servers are already blocked. Any publicity of fediverse in china, positive or not, will only make the complete block happen sooner. @Gargron I'm Chinese. And I think you're right. CCP is acting like a violent ex-husband who claims Taiwan is still his wife and he's gonna kill her if she dates anyone. @Gargron Seems somebody is getting angry for a 1-star voted to his company's app :blobcatgiggle: . @Gargron @Gargron can you not dispute that rating and have their comment and rating removed as it doesn’t not relate in anyway to the app? These things are terrible as they lower the overall rating of an app for no good reason. Hopefully you can fix this. @Gargron LOL? xD It's like "reviewing" the Netherlands negatively, cause, "they are too many gays there" xD LOOOOOOOL xD BTW, do you review countries? 🤔 Can I give Poland 1-star? 🤔 |
@Gargron there are too many countries, 1 star
