@purrperl wait a sec, did you just spend three replies implying I'm new here, not familiar with the settings available, and explaining away reply guys to me...an admin who has been here for years longer and has over 20x the followers?
Ngl, that's pretty `reply guy` 💁🏼♀️
It's not about you or me, just some ideas on a general issue people encounter on the Fediverse, and suggestions on how to address them.
If you think you're above discussing things earnestly, so perfect that learning anything new is insulting, what can I say?
queer: you (1), me(1)
pansexual you(1), me(1)
enby: you(1), me(1)
autistic: you(1), me(1)
fedi-experienced: you(1), me(1)
POC: you(0), me(1)TOTAL: you(5), me(6)
I'm the bigger victim here.
Stop oppressing me, white folx!!! 😂 -

It's a pretty autistic style of communication to pedantically give context, before getting to the point. If that insults you, you are an oppressor of minorities.
Some cogent ideas were put forth, for discussion. If you're insulted, then yes, I am the reply guy, the bad guy. Block me now. Complain to my fedi instance admin. Have me expelled. Silence the poor brown person. 😂

Dear Scammers, Spammers, Bots, and Trolls,
Fuck you. Get off Fedi. No one wants you here.Dear Mutual Aid Requesters,
Don't act like scammers, spammers, or bots—otherwise you get treated like them. Instead, build community and friends here. Contribute positively. Then folx will want to help you.Dear Adult Content Posters,
Don't post other folx' nudes without consent. It makes you look like spammers and bots; and it's considered Image-Based Sexual Abuse, as well as copyright infringement—both of which are illegal. Instead, boost local sexworkers / content creators and post your own stuff. Build something positive.Dear Reply Guys, Sea Lions, and Concern Trolls,
Just stop. Also, you used the wrong *their* again.Dear Everyone,
Be kind. Support marginalized communities. Write good alt-text. Report predatory accounts. And keep being lovely 💞Let's keep Fedi from becoming Twitter, together.
We've got a good thing here.

@alice Good rant.

I can't be the only one who had to look up sea lions (searching for it along with "reply guy" got me past the cute mammals). Here you go:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SealioningYay learning! And thanks, Alice, for your championing of the community here in the Fedi!

This rant brought to you by the spam accounts and bigoted trolls I suspended his morning, and the reply guys and death threats I've received since posting it.
Edited for inclusivity.
@alice thank you so much for everything you do to make this space the kind and awesome place it is 🥰

@purrperl you really didn't look at anything about me before making assumptions did you?
Also, you keep mentioning that you're brown-skinned like the color of your skin has anything to do with my replies or you speedrunning the Sea Lion meme (which someone shared earlier in the thread).
Here, I'll share it again for you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealioning
And on that note, I'm done with conversation.

I checked your profile and hashtags.
Help! Help! They're "whitesplaining" to me! 😂
New rule: Any time a "white" person says anything, true or not, a POC is allowed to cry "whitesplaining", and avenge centuries of oppression, and shut them down, by summoning a crowd of POC.
No point casting my pearls to callow people who take things personally and get triggered, then try to use terms like "mansplaining". 😂
Okay, I'm done with this conversation too. Sayonara!

@x41h well, if you have any interest, my gallery is freely available from a pinned post on my profile.
If that's not your thing, totally valid too 💖
@alice I shall check it out )

@alice I would like to make sure that people know Alice doesn't speak for all of us. Mutual Posts are always welcome in my timeline. I may not always be able to help, but I WILL boost even if other people get grumpy about those posts. Feel free to unfollow me or block me if you don't like that. It's a really tough world and I want to do everything in my power to make sure good people don't have to needlessly suffer. Also, there are tons of amazing and super useful bots on the fediverse. We don't need to throw the baby out with the bathwater. Nobody wants scammers or spammers. Bots and Mutual Aid are not scammers or spammers. This sort of liberal pedantic bullshit just justifies lacking empathy for others and at a time like we are experiencing in the world right now, that is just a shit take. Somebody had to say it. Just because this is a popular post, doesn't make it correct or even valid. It's not cool to lack empathy for people who need help and people need to see that there are actually people on the fediverse who care about people other than themselves. The great thing about the fediverse is there is actually a care culture happening here that is quite different than other parts of the internet. Alice doesn't make the rules for all of us and it would be great if all influencer types could stop acting like they are an authority on what the fediverse wants or needs just because they have a platform they can use to push their will and desires on the rest of us.

Great post. While we’re at it (as I’ve posted about a few times), make this #fedifirst - As in, post here on Mastodon with your content. Don’t force me to go off-site so that you get ad revenue.
@terrasays @alice I kinda agree. I would rather people share links to their websites, RSS feeds, lengthy indie blog posts then read it on here.

@alice A digital code of honor with a flavor of loving anger…
If half the people followed it, the other half would finally sleep in peace.
Thank you, from the heart of Gaza and from the tent 🤍 -

@alice Five stars, no notes.

@alice Well said! Also thank you, now I know what a Sea Lion is, never heard of such a thing (in this context)
@drewseph@ohai.social @alice@lgbtqia.space Basically the troll constantly peppers the victim with seemingly sincere requests for further discussion, further evidence, further reasoning without any desire to actually engage in a good-faith conversation. They're just trying to pester and annoy the victim to the point of frustration. If at any point the victim seeks to leave the cycle of debate the troll will declare victory, they they are actually the genuine "thinker" and that the victim was the troll or fool or wrong.

@alice I was literally laughing out loud when I saw „re: reply guys“ and a three-reply thread beneath it.

@alice Not that it’s happened to me, but marking NSFW content as NSFW is also a big one. Thankfully, defederating from servers that DON’T enforce this rule is a lifesaver, but it’s good practice nonetheless!

🔴L' #AI amplifica ciò che siamo disposti a pensare.
Se il cogito è debole, l'amplificazione produce rumore e l'individuo si perde nell'oracolo tecnologico.
Se il cogito è forte, l'AI diventa strumento riflessivo junghiano, spazio di confronto e banco di prova delle proprie idee.
Il cogito, il pensiero critico e l'elaborazione cognitiva, si possono allenare.

È arrivata la "bibbia" di Giovanni Lilliu.
Questo perché neanche tanto tempo fa @zabow (che ringrazio) aveva postato il link ad un interessantissimo documentario (in francese) sulla civiltà nuragica, con bellissime immagini e ricostruzioni virtuali. Da cui il dubbio: stai a vedere che l'organizzazione socio-economica dei nuragici era molto più avanzata di quella degli isolani attuali! 😄
Per togliermi ogni dubbio è tempo di studiare questa miniera di informazioni.

la X in XMPP sta per estensibile, XMPP era stato creato con in testa il caso d'uso delle chat testuali degli anni 90, ma si è adattato facilmente alle chat testuali con allegati, videochiamate (1:1), connettività mobile e quant'altro degli anni 20, così come a molti altri casi d'uso di nicchia
farlo in modo che sia compatibile (per quello che riguarda le funzionalità comuni) con gli altri client potrebbe funzionare bene oppure no, non è obbligatorio, ma se fattibile darebbe dare dei vantaggi alla soluzione. oppure no, dipende dal caso d'uso specifico, e onestamente con discord non ho mai avuto a che fare per cui non posso sbilanciarmi sulla cosa.

@tk honestly, ironing clothes is less of a chore than vacuuming :D (we usually do it a bit at a time with a rechargeable vacuum)
(and baking, considering a number of food restrictions, would have required too much prep time, ending up happening after the peak of electricity production)
(heat pumps for water heating have been postponed to “when we can save a bit more money for it, and hopefully the prices will have gone down a bit, because right now all of the quotes we're getting are (probably oversized but) extortionate”)
