@pujz The reason they “hate Mastodon” is social, not technological. All the technological talk is justification
@taalumot hesitant to condemn friends but if they’re the kind of people to be turned off a place for cliquey reasons, then, well…
@pujz I don’t NECESSARILY mean it in such a personal way, at least for most folks, but I do think there’s a pervasive “us vs. them” mentality on a general level, “them” being blue-team-coded censorshipcels, which, you know, obviously we are
@taalumot oh man. i just love censorship, it’s my favourite political activity, especially when it’s the state doing the censoring. that’s why i joined the “fed”iverse
@taalumot jokes aside tho i suspected this was the case but didn’t really want to believe it. i’ve come to realise there are tech enthusiasts and tech people™️, freedom lovers and Freedom Lovers, etc and i land on the opposite side of that equation more often that not in tpotland
@pujz Well, if you’re just checking in today, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised how many more of us there are
