@thomasfuchs VR is not like anything else. Corporate hacks tried to hype their shit vision of VR, with stuff that does work better with screens, but there are truly unique experiences in VR, that makes it worth it. Despite of corporations trying to take advantage of it, and not because of it.

I don't want work meetings in VR, I want to be an animal person with friends, and that's not easy to monetize. And I hope it remains that way. So people pay artists directly when they want a custom avatar for example. I also play games but it's usually much more intense and tiring, so it's kind of an entertainment category of its own.

@TheGoodSpace I would add anarch.cc, a private mastodon server hosting... you guessed it: trans women. Posting about anarchism and philosophy among other things.

Also a bunch of furry servers like blimps.xyz accused of federating with other servers (none of which did anything wrong either, as far as I know). And as we know most furries are queer.

I'm all for defending from harassment, racism and bigotry, but I'd like queer people to still have a community they can communicate with...

@kris @atomicpoet @socialmedianews Technically, yeah, but it's a tiny shadow of its former self. I was a fervient defender of XMPP and I had no use for it when 90% of my friends stopped using it and almost everyone were elsewhere already. And before that, the ecosystem was held back by Google, who refused to implement key features.

@atomicpoet @socialmedianews We should never forget how Google Talk killed Jabber/XMPP.
