If only the mods had control, you know of the tools used to make the system work. Call it worker controll of the means of production maybe.
This here is more commie in the tradtitional pre bolshevik sense "the free and equal association of producers."
I agree with most of this. Also my movie in my cue.
Eddit. God damned fat fingers
Im deeply out of the loop on mastodon. What happened there?
There always the defederation option. There was no exodus from mastodon when fashy-twitter (gab) started using a fork as their backend. Everyone just blocked them. At least thats my understanding.
Sorry the o word bit was a dunp joke. I actualy prefer it over the usual coy alternatives like ceo.
Oooohh ... he said the O word /s.
Seriously though, I think the best defence againt that is decentralization. It's not just ok for this to not be THE reddit sucessor. It's a positive good. Even more so now that I've realized you can follow most activitypub based things like mastodon from most of the others. Not only are none of the successors in completion, they're in symbiosis.
As a reddit refugee the image and video viewer has been the only speedbump for me. That is other than not being hooked up to a firehose of content, but i feel that will come in time.
I'm happy to have influxed all over. Its been both welcoming and chill.
Edit spelling
Feels like this might be the fediverse flavor that sticks with me. I tried mastodon and diaspora, but they didn't stick. Didn't help that I hated Twitter and Facebook.
This feels chill so far. I like it
It's only infighting because we're all members of a living community. Other wise it's just fighting
