@lanodan your remarks about political ideologies aside, based on the quotes it seems there's an additional layer to this decision. Perhaps frustration, with something else breaking the camel's back? Regardless, wew. Also kek'd about the ending but note that «normies» was the original anon term that became reviled and morphed into normalfags… after they adopted it for themselves.
Pic related on a deeply esoteric level as a post-ironic commentary on the nature of fed-erated SNS. Maybe.
@lanodan ah, also I remember GNU Social quoting the immediate parent post to a degree without the @ handles too. At least it did in non-qvitter frontend which I used extensively because my toaster could barely handle that pile of javashit garbage
@Hyolobrika@lanodan@r3vlibre I haven't really decided yet. It seems to me that there are enough open source developers and projects out there that we don't have to accept shitty developers. And exercising one's freedom of association is a time honored method of dealing with shitty people.
@lanodan@r3vlibre Perhaps it's time to auto-block all Pleroma instances since the remaining devs and every user are people who are OK with Gleason being a maintainer and therefore maybe don't belong in the decent parts of the Fediverse.
@lanodan@r3vlibre Surprise, surprise, someone with political views that shit all over an oppressed minority and regularly engages in gaslighting turns out to be a piece of shit all the way around. Who could have predicted?
While I don't know how feasible it would be, I know that some people like @FloatingGhost (she's the only one that I remember now) that mantains her own fork of pleroma and join with other people and fork it for real and create a less polarizing version?
