Gregory's Server@rysiek @FediThing because a portion of this is a political issue, the coordination should include educating/informing the general population about what is happening, what changes they'll experience as a result, what the goals are, when it will resolve (or escalate if not addressed.) Otherwise we may just drive a bunch of people back to Birdchan/Bluesky because they suddenly lost 1/3 to 1/2 of their followers/following.

 Maybe we could take a model from real life industrial disputes, where strikes are brief to begin with and become more frequent if the management refuses to talk? @FediThing @rysiek yep. Exactly. While I think that all who are concerned about the current direction are totally in the right, I think it's important to consider how it plays for what is now a large part of the Mastodon user base who doesn't know/doesn't care, and at least make some attempts to bring them along. Reach/teach those that are reachable/teachable anyway. Some still won't care, but at least an attempt can be made. @mrbitterness@exile.social @rysiek@mstdn.social @FediThing@tech.lgbt |

Yes, definitely.
Mastodon gGmbH is setting up lots of unwitting users for a nasty shock, it's very irresponsible of Eugen to play "defederation chicken" like this.
