@cm_harlow They have to already be followed by one person on your instance, or the full username has to typed if not. (including the instance)

@Jonesing It is backwards, if I had an issue with certain content yet wanted to participate in a fundamentally OPEN social website I wouldn't force others to format a broad range of posts with content warnings.

Tumblr has a tag blocking thing I'm pretty sure? If I had an issue it'd be my responsibility to block individuals and tags I don't want to see. If that's not enough there's literal safe area instances.

@animeirl That makes a lot more sense. The birds I'm interested in are like demon toddlers that don't grow up.

@Jonesing Campaining for people to do things you want is off putting however. I wish the actual rules were simply enforced by administrators and the report function used.

@animeirl I'm scared of getting a large bird because of the commitment and you've committed 20 years to shrimp. ( that blue one would look amazing in an aquascape )

@animeirl Yeah that's a good while for something a couple centimeters long, lmao.

@animeirl *looks up how long a shrimp's lifespan is

That's considerable longer than I thought...

@Melon_Bread Yeah, saying a certain group wouldn't be able to use the platform sort of goes against the idea in the first place. An extremely hateful group could go ahead and make their own instance, they just wouldn't be federated with instances that don't want literal hate speech on their feed.

The idea is for instances not to federate with instances that conflict with their rules, to an unacceptable degree. This is why awoo.space is an island, only connected to mastodon.social.

@masklayer ty I just sent myself some spicey nudes

@charlag Someone said earlier that it's not accurate and not all of them are down. ( I haven't checked myself )

@Melon_Bread I wish some of the instance admins could come up with a more readily available explanation of how everything works. I'm 100% okay with safe areas and individual communities having different ideas of what's okay, but this is getting weird.

This is a great platform for everyone to be happy.

Is anyone willing to actually discuss pseudo rules propping up as if they're community standards? Where is this widespread CW community standard coming from?

Why are people acting as if there isn't already instance rules? I'd understand in full if certain content was required to be tagged as per instance rules but why are all these federated messages coming through seemingly without any understanding that each instance has rules demanding everyone listen to their needs?

@hellojed No, just sugar dude.

@KindlyFire@maly.io That's also why if an admin deletes your account on one instance the federated messages remain on all of the others.

@mig5 @KindlyFire@maly.io It stores everything that goes through federated locally.

@hellojed I'll buy you a root beer it's o k

@tariqk Supposedly on the main instance it's already impossible to just sit and read the feed.
