Meta, Mastodon moderation
People (white dudes) complain that Mastodon creates isolated communities because they block other instances, and thats censorship.
Yes.
Otherwise the only option for me would be to meet my friends in a place where Nazis and Pedophiles hang out, which I'd rather not.
They also ignore that Twitter does the same. 🤡
It is #FollowFriday! We have been on #Mastodon for about two weeks now and we are really enjoying it!
We would love to see some more engagement, and keep learning from our new audience here about what they want to see, because BOY do we have a LOT to share! So… TELL US! Ask us questions! We’d love to hear from you!
With more than 7 million specimens and in one of Oxford’s most beautiful building… what more could you ask for?!

While I very much appreciate the thoughtful discourse here and am enjoying the low-key interactions, I do miss the silly gifs.
Can I.... uh... follow more things that will make my feed a little lighthearted on Friday afternoon?

Oh, no, someone has 69 toots, is following 88 people, and has 88 followers. We need to change that! (#Numerology sucks)

Sigh: Yes, AR-15 stands for Armalite Rifle, but when your child is rendered so unrecognizable from dozens of bullets in her tiny body that only her sneakers can ID her, you don't care what it stands for, you care that no civilian needs or should have one.

The layout of the calendar repeats over time. You don't have to buy a new calendar every year. For example, for 2023, you can reuse the calendar for 2017. Big Calendar does not want you to know this! Wake up, sheeple!
(Yes, I know that most of us receive so many calendars in the mail that we never actually buy new ones. Don't stop me. I'm on a roll.)
Living with a pack of dogs, #IdąPsięta, and running our small #RuralBroadband service in a #TinyHouse in the forest, where everything but the bathroom is an open space, means that all of our few hundred customers have our dogs' hair on their contracts.
UK GDPR, or rather ICO, is broken, IMHO

On bad Friday we have refurbished our two iphones for 150€ (2 batteries, 1 screen), thus avoiding wastage. Remember not to renew electronic devices before 5-7 years of use. #sufficiency
Living in the #wetlands of #Polesia (also spelled #Polesie) in #EasternPoland. Surrounded by #bogs and #forests, trying not to fuck up surrounding nature too much.
Taking care of a small pack of #dogs – #IdąPsięta.
Luddite working with hi-tech.
#RuralBroadband provider by accident. Starting a small LoRaWAN project to monitor our wetlands. Coding in #Python. Dealing with dirty data, cleaning them when time allows.
#Atheist. I don't *believe* in #science – science is the *only* thing that protects us from belief.
Fuck nazis.
My account on Twitter is still up, for good reasons. https://twitter.com/szescstopni
I check facts before I toot.
I sometimes toot in Polish.
Zdolny, ale leniwy.
