@damon Why would I ever support jannies and the worst aspects of the Fediverse (e.g., #fediblock). How about Mastodon does us all a favor and mass migrate to BlueSky already?

@icedquinn @adiz @damon its funny how I've seen the fediblock ppl do the exact kind of thing they don't like
transphobia (remember TBS?), misgendering, deadnaming, racism, and that's all I can think of rn.iced depresso likes this. -

@david @icedquinn @adiz @damon "there are not bad tactics, only bad targets". You are forbidden to deadname generally, but they are allowed to weaponize it to attack bad people (bad according to them, no accountability for that though lol.) -

@icedquinn @adiz @damon just to expand on this
transphobia - they dislike white trans women like eris etc
misgendering - when david @ tech.lgbt was misgendered
deadnaming - eris was deadnamed
racism - someone who was clearly on the TBS side of things said if you look white but are black, then you don't get discriminated against by police, implying that they are not black enough to be discriminated against -

@adiz @damon @david increasingly i think nostr is a good option for "scream in to void" style network, with xmpp and delta chat being better "now that i know who my friends are" networks
nostr ends up doing a lot of what zot did. if you integrated optional custodial keys in the relays, it basically would be zot. :neocat_woozy: -

@david Yeah, I don't know. I think we need more narcissistic, power-hungry, spiteful, vindictive cop-personalities sabotaging the network in petty attempts at controlling everyone and installing an ideological or sociopolitical hegemony. @damon @icedquinn

@sun @adiz @damon @david i mentioned again today the absolute stupidity that was going after ulysses grant and defacing his statues
a man who never purchased any slaves in a time where that was commonplace and expecetd. he received one (1) slave from family which he never asked for. used the man for like one year to get out of debt, emancipated him, proceeded to write self flagellating letters about how he found it one of the worst things he'd ever done in life, and proceeded to preside over an entire war to end the practice
i'm not sure what more you need for a redemption arc. -

@adiz @damon @david anything PKI is doomed from the get go. people really aren't compatible with it. that's why i mention custodial relays.
zot is like fedi but while every user has an identity in the form of a pki key, the home server manages it. you can migrate to another home server (and keep a backup even, with a takeover code) and it works.
its not like fedi where you can't just up an go somewhere else without a huge amount of bother -

@icedquinn Nostr is kind of a trash network devoid of content (so much of the content is stuff imported in from the Fediverse via bridges or bots/spam). Interesting concept, it was, but mostly dead (on arrival, even). I know nothing of Zot nor Delta Chat, but XMPP is super comf. @damon @david

@sun @adiz @david i think its safe to call them zealots. they demand absolute and total compliance in all things.
this also costs them wins, because there are many people who would be willing to meet some of their goals and they are refused because the person who supports raising wages doesn't want puberty blockers etc. in their world any disagreement is nazism (centrist nazis, lmao)

@icedquinn Blocklisting is kind of insane. I'm regularly seeing instances which haven't been around for 2--3 years being freshly-added to newly-formed Fediverse instances who just blindly trust and implement third-party blocklists. So much of #fediblock and the Mastodon-blight "moderation" practices have been purely based on petty internal quarrels and infighting and chauvinistic, Western-centric political purity spirals. Nothing to do with stemming actual harassment nor genuinely building a safer, healthier, nicer community for users. Just like with law enforcement, the people who get attracted to positions of power and influence over others (like jannies) are never sane, level-headed, neutral chill-personality types. These power roles attract absolute scum humans who immediately abuse those positions for their own selfish benefits or ulterior motives. @sun @damon @david

Yes, we brought Zot features to ActivityPub. Streams now supports both Zot and ActivityPub nomadic identity. Forte, the next project in this chain of forks, is rumored to be ActivityPub-only.

@icedquinn From what I understand, ActivityPub does, actually, have some level of protocol-level support for things like nomadic or immutable identities and migration therein. I believe that @silverpill and others are working on implementations therein. @damon @david
