Gregory's Serversetting aside the free speech nonsense i don't understand why someone would think that "defederation means fewer people will see your posts" is something we should be concerned about. why would i want more people to be able to access this log of strange toilet thoughts and my pathological obsession with cartoon gay porn?? im pretty happy gatekeeping that to the few people who are actually interested thanks.

@CobaltVelvet @sayyid_qishta the way I would post about being a trans man on other sites and feel like a fucking trans ambassador or get asked questions like I was leading a workshop for cis people's edification

@sayyid_qishta i get anxious whenever i see a ton of new notifications on here,,,,, i have no desire to go viral, i am here to socialize with my fellow queerdos, dweebs, sluts, and geeks, not all the terrible negative things that happen whenever a post leaves containment

@sleep @sayyid_qishta like even at best I'll get several new followers who will proceed to never interact with a single thing I post, just, watching. waiting.

@ray @sayyid_qishta or they’ll boost something and it’ll make its way to the instances that exist solely to harass and abuse people

people will gladly hold beliefs contrary to evidence they are steadily presented. like other social media platform have convinced people to crave virality and countless eyeballs fixed on their doofy little posts -- despite the bountiful evidence this is a bad thing in the short term, and utterly liquifies people's brains in the long term. |
@sayyid_qishta yea actually im pretty worried about the way people will expect our posts to be some kind of public service of content
