Though it's important I've always wanted an instance that's general and something I could say to my friends. #GameLiberty is a name I can write off as a gaming-focused instance, but many would probably already yikes at a site named Free Speech E X T R E M I S T, and same (albeit for different reasons) for intentionally niche instances like smugloli, blobcat, absturztau and everything else recommended on that #fuckgab website that led me to this.
I guess this really just runs to the point of why the #fediverse won't gain mass adoption without a single instance dominating and succeeding on its own - it's completely contradictory. Even #email is giants-controlled, with literally all but a few of my classmates on #gmail!
@realcaseyrollins @vetharvester >anime.website at top of list ya into the trash
@a7 @vetharvester What's wrong with it?
@realcaseyrollins @vetharvester nothing really that big - i just dont like opal - hate them with a passion
also they instance block mikoto rather than just blocking them themselves, maybe they fixed that overstep as an admin after their mental breakdown ended i dunno
@a7 @vetharvester All I know is it's missing #Soapbox instances like jaeger.website and social.teci.world
@realcaseyrollins @vetharvester and my pleroma instance reeeeeeeeeeee
actually na dont really wanna be on a list like this.
@a7 @vetharvester Why not?
@realcaseyrollins @vetharvester gives off a kool kids klub vibe and feels circle jerky
@vetharvester That’s actually something we’re trying to avoid, but there’s no reason we can’t handle a ton of users on one instance. mastodon.social dominates and succeeds on its own, for example. This is why gmail (and federation in general) is a bad idea: https://secushare.org/federation
@vetharvester fuck gab website?
