Not sure why they would since that's my Twitter.
I setup a test server for a few days just to get a feel for how everything worked, what optimisations I could do, etc. before I put this domain in prod.
Then I was @gay@urmum.gq. I only got 1 follow tho.
@DetectiveHyde @feld @matrix @djsumdog @awg @dirb @xeno Well, I grew up on 4chan back in it's golden age.
4chan taught me how to churn out quality content at high rates. It also taught me how to not be in a perpetual state of butthurt.
I also look for quality domains to shitpost like https://Feminism.LGBT https://TrumpIsLoveTrumpIs.Life and https://FakeNewsWithTheJews.gq
As I said to someone about it when I was recounting those days, "because nothing mattered, EVERYTHING mattered." We actually became adept at creating our own meaning. "Nothing is sacred" quickly gave us our own sacred things.
How strange it was. People who started on social media can never get it.
@DetectiveHyde @feld @matrix @djsumdog @awg @dirb @xeno I feel like this is the reason I just can't relate to younger generations. The internet they grew up on is completely different than the internet I grew up on.
They complain about getting "bullied" online whereas I think I'm doing something wrong if I don't get called a faggot at least every once in a while.

It's hard to break the conditioning since all mainstream places are sanitized and some people still want more. One of the reasons people go to Mastodon isn't because they can have fun, modern and uncensored Twitter. They go to Mastodon, because Twitter doesn't censor enough for their liking.
@DetectiveHyde @feld @djsumdog @awg @dirb @xeno
the problem is Those People tend to do shit like blind banning all .moe instances, or, my all-time 10/10 favorite, that time the admin of jorts.horse found out lain is a 14 year old anime girl so they assumed lets all love lain means lets all fugg lolis and banned lall without even talking to nik and essie about it.
everything would be fine if admins talked to each other; i dont think theres a single "problematic" realm with an asshole admin out there. even FSE, as abrasive as they can be, have @p the absolute cutie who's so kind and cool they make MRFs that exclude them from fse blocks. but on the other hand you get these power tripping assholes and i just wrote three paragraphs and yet im so sorry but im not going anywhere with this! i literally dont know what to do about it :NotLikeThis:
@xeno
I tend to agree, there are legitimate reasons for blocking an instance, but if you for example check out dzuk's blocklist you will find that most posts cited as reason for the listing are just opinions, jokes or run of the mill insults. Trying not to get blocked is worse than walking on egg shells. It's this culture in general that's pissing me off.

"It's this culture in general that's pissing me off." let me quote my post from earlier tonight: "arguing over censorship semantics is a spook. focus on the goddamn groupthink and dogpiling". it's 100% a problem with the culture and i'm getting tired by the censorship buzzword. crying it out every ten seconds won't get us anywhere
