A month ago, everyone: "Yay, the freedom of decentralized social media where communities can form around their own values and according to their own internal rules."

Today, everyone: "What we need is a central code of conduct by which everyone must conform or risk punishment imposed by people outside their community."

New boss, same as the old boss.

@Frankenbeans Yup, forming a "whitelist council" will kill the momentum of the Mastodon project and hurt single instances of people who want decentralized social media. ๐Ÿค“

@james Decentralized social media and "whitelist councils" that issue conduct-based edicts are incompatible.
