Well no, the fact that it isnt going away and it is only mildly dangerous (at this point slightly above the flu, it was much more dangerous early on) is exactly why I dont wear one anymore, and wont.

The risks are no where near high enough to commit everyone in the world to wear masks for the rest of our lives. 2 years was more than enough, a perminant choice is not rational IMO given the risks, which are real but not particularly significant.

I will say this, if your in an old folks home or a hospital, then yea, wear one.

If wearing a mask is convient for you, go for it.

When I wear a mask I cant see (I wear glasses), I have a lot of trouble breathing (I used to be asthematic) and feel very claustrophobic... While it may be fine for you not everyone response the same, I find it quite miserable to the point where I'd rather not go out. They also give me a headache long term.

The word "fabulous" is redundant here... all meat cities are fabulous.

@PublicChaffinch Do you actually want a serious answer about UFoI? Happy to explain how it works if your legitimately interested in a discussion.

@killeveryhetero

They are free to rag on me, no worries. But thanks.

@ColesStreetPothole

Strange.

@ColesStreetPothole

Actually I just checked, seems to be the first hit as of just now.

@doot@jorts.horse @killeveryhetero

@ColesStreetPothole

We havent even had the site up for 24 hours yet... would you expect it to be ranking on google already?

@doot@jorts.horse @killeveryhetero

@alex Not surprisingly a lie from glitterkitten. Below are screenshots, as can be seen we never had a **single** report from their instance.

either that means the admin is bald face lying, or they reported us but did not check the "forward" box so we never got the report.

Regardless our rules have always been that we would suspend any user who did such a thing, but we cant act on something if we arent made aware of it.

Second as to the subscribe feature, you may not know this but its **already** built in on all mastodon servers in a sense.. all accounts have a RSS feed that give you access to public-only toots. Our subscribe feature gives you the exact same level of access as a RSS reader.

@killeveryhetero sure, have you seen the process and rul;es? https://ufoi.org/docs/apply-info/

@lucifargundam

Is this supposed to be a response to something?

@downey

@mindstalk

If the unknown risks turn out to be quantified and the risks are higher than we thought I am happy to potentially wear a mask **if** wearing a mask presents a potential for a long term solution and is only a temporary thing.

We wore masks for 2 years, more than 2 years... I am more than happy to take my risks rather than wear a mask for the rest of my life, even unknown risks, as there are plenty of those.

@LeneBe @erictopol

@34a3cff1fb40

Ohhhh, well in that case I need to check. You didnt delete your account? Was it suspended maybe? I can look when I get home.

@mindstalk

Not full hazmat, obviously, my point is it seems excessive, on the verge of hypocondria, but thats just my opinion.

A better way to think of it is "Is it worth living my whole life in a face mask, being uncomfortable, sweaty, and miserable, because of something that at this point is only slightly more lethal than the flu (early on it was much more lethal)... Id say no..

The truth is there are thousands of deadly diseases we can catch every day. Wearing partial-hazmat for a life time out of the off chance, the small chance, i may get injured is not a fair tradeoff.

That said I wont judge you if you decide to wear it.
