• No server operator needs to federate with you.
  • No server operator needs to tolerate things they don’t want on their instance.
  • No user of an instance needs to personally curate their own extensive never ending blocklist of users and channels they don’t want to see.

Quit your pseudo-intellectual whining and choose what instance(s) work for you. If you think regularly interacting with shit content somehow helps you stay out of an echo chamber then go ahead and make a second account on those garbage instances full of hateful people. Then you can read both the decent servers and the trash ones and be the fedora wearing ackshually right fair and balanced uber nerd you always wanted to be.

Edit: The huge number of upvotes on this post compared to the low numbers on the whiney imposers’ posts is proof of exactly where this community places its priorities.

    Yes it is equivalent, because you’re telling your fellow humans to LEAVE instead of discuss things on a public forum. It’s obviously weird and petty to tell people to leave.

    And yet the mods aren’t harassing me and I’m not harassing the mods. I’m discussing the benefits of connection with all the other federated users. And a very small number of people are petty enough to tell me to leave. “We don’t discuss things 'round here. Giiit out!”
