@jdp23 I think the best thing about the fediverse is that YOU (the user) can choose which version of the fedi you want to live in. If you don’t want Meta, then choose an instance that blocks them out (or self-host). If you don’t want people searching your content, you can shut that off in your settings. If you don’t want “normies” here, then you can close the doors via your instance. What annoys me is people who want to make *their* version of the fedi the default.

I think this post sums up my constructive thinking on these threads https://hamishcampbell.com/why-the-fediverse-needs-a-connection-between-mainstreaming-and-grassroots/

Did we find any paths out of this mess?

@hamishcampbell @ricmac @evanprodromou If I remember correctly, you shared a blog post with your ideas for what you want to do on the matter? I hope it works out. Good luck!

You are a bright guy, so you can hopefully see the issue with the reply:

If we can't talk about groups we can't talk, not understanding this is lying because It's what we do all the time, as "common sense".
With this in mind, the thread started with @julian taking a group thought and answering as an individual emotion, and carried on in this #blocking way. This is the normal mess, we do need to put more focus into composting :)
