For once am not happy about Mastodon being on the HN frontpage. Someone submitted a work-in-progress pull request there. Half the comments are circlejerking about free speech as always, the other half gives opinions without understanding the context of the feature (which is not surprising given that it's a work-in-progress pull request on GitHub and not a goddamn press release).

@Gargron Yeah that is a weird thing that a pull request showed up there

@Gargron Any social news site that doesn't make it a rule that you are not allowed to link to bug trackers or pull requests is just being irresponsible.

@Gargron just because the US government now outranks it doesn’t mean hacker news isn’t still one of the world’s purest quarries for dunning-kruger.

@Gargron It's good exposure for mastodon.

The only reason I joined today was because I ready more about it from that link!

@Gargron
I think, reading the conversation, that the answers to any criticism of the Fediverse made much better arguments and frankly "won" any debate about the necessity of moderation.

@Gargron against my better judgement I went to look at the post. Why did I do that? I knew it would end badly.
They're so judgmental and juvenile. Also super childish of one of the commenters to paste a quote of your above Toot into the discussion :/
