MEMO: CounterSocial is not a member of the Fediverse. What's more they lock features behind a pay wall, and claim (wrongly!) that when other Fediverse instances defederate with yours, they're breaking the AGPL. https://countersocial.documize.com/s/c30dhakp0nhtab60utag/countersocial-blog/d/c5piofvuaqg133k3is90/the-history-of-countersocial-and-mastodon

@atomicpoet one of the main reasons I started this instance was to see if the comedian was full of shit about the de-fedi. they are indeed full of shit.

@JoYo @atomicpoet Can someone fill me in on the details here? My mother is intending to join counter.social and I don't think she knows about its issues.

@mathlover @atomicpoet there’s nothing wrong with c.s but it’s not connected to the fediverse. you won’t see her posts and she can’t see yours. this is by design of thejester and I occasionally bully them about it on twitter.
