So when I got visibility filtered (aka shadowbanned) today, it feels like a throwback

which makes throwaway accounts less useful for stalkers who wished to circumvent the block with

It’d be useful for those who post in multiple languages

Jane Manchun Wong :janewong: (wongmjane@macaw.social)'s status on Thursday, 22-Dec-2022 20:15:36 JST Jane Manchun Wong :janewong: A “web3” company acquiring a Mastodon instance also makes a little sense to me:
There‘s already web3-native technologies out there like Lens Protocol and Farcaster. One could’ve added ActivityPub capabilities from there. It’s a protocol after all
Buying a Mastodon instance and then trying to fork/add web3 capabilities from there (making it less as compatible with the rest of Mastodon instances (if not already defederated)) feels out of place imo

As discussed previously, of course I can adjust my notifications filter to ignore them. But the problem is that they will drown out my replies section, where I won’t see them but my followers will, which will drastically degrade the quality of further discussions
It used to be a minor annoyance. But with the amount of trolls scaling up and empowered on the site, I feel like it’s no longer possible to have a civil discussion there

Jane Manchun Wong :janewong: (wongmjane@macaw.social)'s status on Wednesday, 30-Nov-2022 13:44:27 JST Jane Manchun Wong :janewong: I deactivated my Twitter account myself, not by Twitter
Since the takeover, I’ve been getting an increased amount of casual racism and sexual harassments on the bird site
I guess expecting people to be respectful to one another online by default is too much to ask and apparently “woke”? And being a dick to people for no reasons is now appreciated on the platform??
I feel like this would’ve gotten worse. So I deactivated, and I don’t know for how long this time…

Then my laptop ran out of storage, which led to me cleaning up all the caches, unused files, etc to squeeze out the space
So today ended up becoming my digital housecleaning day ??
