I just think it’s hilarious that instead of “saving” the fediverse they fractured it. Whiney bitches love to break shit then whine about it being broken.
I would say they’ve brought the fediverse together like never before. I don’t think this many people have agreed on a single thing in the history of fedi.
It’s true, we usually spend most of our time hating eachother for not being the right kind of leftist. This has been a united front as far as I’ve seen.
Hell, it’s the first time I’ve seen everyone open to reasonable discussions of ideas like his in a long time. By setting up a boundary that everyone vocally agrees is unacceptable suddenly there’s a sense of trust that people aren’t all rushing towards it.
It showed the broad spirit of the users, and that the fundamental nature of the federation design model… works literally exactly as it was intended to.
Sure, you can be the petty tyrant of your own fiefdom.
But no one rules everything, and anyone, at a comparatively low actual cost of entry, can make their own fiefdom, if they want to.
Maybe we should all be thanking nutomic and Dessalines, regardless of any specific disagreements any of us may have with them, for doing the fundamental conceptual and coding work.
I would definitely agree. Despite our differences, we all have one thing in common. We don’t like being deceived by those who build the frontends we use. We trust our credentials to these people and trust they aren’t going to screw us over. He violated that trust and people are right to be pissed about it.

Or, frankly, because of the disagreements. Whatever bullshit you can say they pulled, at least it wasn’t, yknow, this.
Absolutely, well said.

Can’t have your little kingdom when it’s not fractured from the whole.
