I've stepped down, at least temporarily, as a moderator on mastodon.social.

Im not fucking LGBT or whatever that leaves out so fucking much

srsly fuck letter salad

Just tell us you don't really care, so we can truly fork and move on with development that actually cares about a vulnerable userbase.

Don't vaguely say it, just come out and say it properly. Tell us, so we know what to expect form you.

The Double Speak is troublesome, and it even hurt me personally.

I thought we wanted to be better than Twitter and Facebook, but that's not what I'm seeing here.

The temperature of the waters, so to speak. Find out what people wanted, not only by looking at a really old feature request, but maybe sharing it again and being like "Okay, this is on the table for consideration, but we need some more feedback, and look at abuse-vectors etc."

Showing that we wanted to listen. But like.... The result, is that G is back at "I don't care what you say", while pretending that he still wants to be Anti-Abuse.

I should probably be taking this behind CWs. I'm sorry that I didn't from the beginning. Sometimes I feel like some stuff needs to be said out loud, but I understand the need for CWs, and I apologize.

One of the reasons this frustrates me, because it happens just 3 weeks after I was told I wasn't strictly needed in the role I was filling.

Like, I wanted to make sure we didn't get another blowup like this, that we did some proper planning, and checked the temprature

On that note, I guess I haven't said it lately: there are a lot of projects putting forward work into ActivityPub implementations right now. I'm very grateful for everyone across all those projects who are working on things. I know it's hard work. Not just programmers for those projects, all contributors.

For 3 years I put in a lot of stress and effort into activitypub, and many times I considered giving up. These days I'm glad I didn't. Thanks for making it worth it.
