> The [former] governor of Idaho is called Butch Otter. He's a staunch opponent of gay marriage, despite marrying a woman who was actually called Gay. So, he literally took part in a Gay marriage, which in 1964 was considered pretty progressive.

"Earlier this year, we announced working on a new generation of fully distributed chat, based on git.

We are excited to announce that the first public Beta is now available for testing on multiple platforms!

The most significant new feature is the introduction of our new Swarm technology, allowing for a fully synchronized history across devices, and guaranteed message delivery even in case of connectivity loss."

It's always good to have options at your disposal, the problem is when options become defaults.

I'm talking to the people the run the instances and the individuals using them. Ask yourselves if blocking or ignoring information that you don't like is the right thing to do.

I have said it before, but this site and the people who make it what it is, and my Fediverse friends have been one of the most important things in my life, in particular right now I would not be where I am if I had never set up a Fediverse server. My faith and my parents are tied for first, and the Fediverse and everything that has sprung from it are almost certainly number two. @sim has been a consistent fixture of positive influence on me, my Northern Star. @lain has given me tools and friendship to help me to grow and excel in unexpected ways. And @rw propelled me to break through and achieve my dreams and to evolve into the person I wanted to be, things prior to meeting him I wasn't sure would ever happen. There are many others, more than I could enumerate in one sitting. I am sorry if this sounds too florid to be authentic, but my life is immeasurably better now than it was ten years ago and I noticed the other day that I was happy.

@zleap

Yes as a STEM instance the point oif inclusivity of fringe ideas is essentially for us to discuss and learn how to approach those subjects. We have to be able to ask questions even if those questions are uncomfortable.

But I'd say the same is true even of non-STEM instances. We need to get back to being okay with being uncomfortable and not to equate uncomfortable with immoral.

Agreed, I think the approach we have here is the best middle ground we could hope for. Of course people will misunderstand and cause drama, thats inevitable. We can just try to explain the why and do the best we can to be ethical and inclusive at the same time. A challenge yes, but I think here at QOTO we are an example of that being possible.

I mean sure, the truely extremist and oppressive end of the spectrum of feminists I'm sure would be offended by anything that depicts sexuality. While im all for the fediverse giving them the power to exist and be able to block the vast majority of servers that allow this I think it would be counter productive to try and care about the presence of sexuality in the fediverse in an attempt to appeal to a radicalized extremist group that represents a small portion of the population.
