Gregory's Server@victoriadecapua You're using a service that is built for de-centralization. That is why it exists. If you didn't find this useful to a certain extent, you wouldn't be here.

 @victoriadecapua Okay, but why are you here on Mastodon? Why not hang out on Twitter instead? And if you don't like Twitter, why not Post or Hive or Tribel? You have lots of choice, but you're here. @atomicpoet Because I told Elon Musk to get fucked in the ass by a sbarro cactus. I'm here because I want to be here. But I don't obey you, or your version of reality, or your software, or anything I don't choose to. I don't have to thwart shit for you. It's a waste of my creative abilities to think in your terms, and I solve problems that way. If I wanted to be on rails or deal with dogmatic thought policing, then you're right, I would be elsewhere. Just not your kind of joiner. @victoriadecapua So you don't like Elon. I don't like him either. Thing is, Elon can't buy Mastodon. You know why? Because Mastodon is de-centralized. Now certain entities will try to re-centralize social media. If we build a culture that values resistance to another wannabe Musk, then that means decentralizing social media. That's all I have to say. Have a wonderful night. |
@atomicpoet Human behaviour *doesn't care* what the service is built for. This isn't a question of what was intended, it's the question of what the pressure of diaspora will ultimately create.
I'm using the largest (as far as I can tell) server because it fits a social milieu for the greatest diversity and reach, with people I know, and people I don't. All the proselytizing just ends up making diehards look impossibly out of touch.
