I’ve noticed that every different social media medium/site has its own Eternal September moment. I think, optimistically, that we’re still before that point. If we get popular and the general population arrives, it’ll also attract the predatory ecosystem of state actors and corporate bullshit.

I think Lemmy and the Fediverse in general is resistant to that, but not immune. I expect an effort to create One Big Instance that most people use, or an oligarchy of large instances working together, like Microsoft and Gmail and co do with email.

Im assuming you’ve looped in @chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.ca?

Yeah, chicken and egg. Unfortunate twitter has now locked down feeds so you have to be logged in, so also fuck them on that point.

It’s a tradeoff. I am so disgusted by twitter that I chose to give that up and leave.

This is a baffling comment. There are tons of people on mastodon, more than I could ever hope to keep up with. I have a couple hundred accounts on follow and never manage to keep up. Honestly it could use some sorting.

I’ve been using rspamd for a while. It may be extensible to do token based classification like you want but it may take some work.

Nebula is a creator run coop, I believe. I’m happy to pay for that, and do.

I have crowdsec on a bunch of servers. It’s great and I love that I’m feeding my data to the swarm.

In most other spaces, I have to defend my use of Linux. It’s refreshing to have a place where it’s more or less the default.

Oh lord that would sell me on mastodon instantly if I weren’t already there.

Sssh, sssh, let people enjoy things

I took note of it before I left. Other people mentioned it. I didn’t think it would be as big as it was. Kinda cool. Never cared about it enough to check.

I confidently deleted my 33k karma, 12 year old reddit account yesterday. I agree.
