No, thanks for suggesting. I saw a thread by other curious users and checked fediseer. Might be an admin issue, but I didn't see clear evidence.

Don't think it was spam as, unless I'm misunderstanding, that seems unlikely from fosstodon.

Pseudo?

I meant that it's not directly associated with you as the owner through your migrated account.

Edited comment (many to some).

This isn't an absolute rule. Of course they don't (and shouldn't) ask for feedback before cutting off Nazi instances, but it's not always so clear.

.world defederated from fosstodon and I'm still unsure why.

What you're describing sounds closer to how atproto is supposed to work, but it's yet unproven in regards to decentralization.

I agree with the overall spirit, but this is a bit shallow, no? Not much of an attempt to argue its points. It makes some claims, refuses to elaborate, then leaves. Feels written for people who already think the same.

Because of this as well as poor financial management, Cohost will pass out of internet culture with little impact

Would decentralization have helped it make a much greater impact? Would it have helped Cohost survive? Seems to me that financial issues would've killed it regardless.

Your content stays behind, though, and some shut down without warning.

Your posts will not be moved, due to technical limitations.

Wait, when have I ever denied any genocide?

I'm sorry, that's hilarious. It's so odd, so absurd I can't help but laugh.

I've disagreements of my own, but all I want is to put them aside for a bit because this sentence deserves appreciation.

We also need more straightforward installation procedures so more people can host their own.

Hosting your own instance is not a fire and forget operation. The closest thing is single-user instances, but even then there are matters the admin must handle. Plus, there's little incentive for doing all this work.

Aight, I've spent my allotted 20 minutes reading open source project drama and still don't get this comment. Mind sharing some context?

I volunteered because I worried for the community. There were few comments and I couldn't sit by when it seemed so straightforward to step up for the sake of something I care about.

Later, admins shared that they'd been taking care of it (things were never as dire as I feared), and they've since appointed actual moderators. Even one with actual experience, too! I trust things will be fine, now.

All this to say: I'll be here as an option, should you want more people, but I'm happy with how things turned out. Much better than the communities that (sadly) spend months looking for volunteers.

More people than I expected volunteered, which is nice to see. Since I ended up creating an account, I'll leave it here anyway.
