@Karthikdeva dust allergies acting up now! Never before had that issue unless I was at a construction site or anywhere near a place super dusty! They still burst crackers here, even after the way the sky has been looking.... So basically nobody cares. I suspect pollution and everything about it in this area sucks!

Request : Tooters who have a blue tick after their name in Masodon, please remove. It is a status symbol, a relic of the BirdSite. We really have no place for a caste or class heirachy here. Of course, it is upto you.

What a huge spike at #QOTO. 723 new users in less than a week.

All the new STEM posts I'm seeing popping up are amazing and its also great to meet so many new people.

As many of you know they are largely from India and I for one amd enjoying all the new culture and perspectives they are bringing.

Its great being a part of this community and seeing it grow.

If larger country oppresses a smaller country,I’ll stand with smaller country

If smaller country has Majoritarian Religion which oppresses minority religions,I’ll stand with Minority religion

If minority religion has caste & one caste oppresses another caste,I’ll stand with caste being oppressed

In oppressed caste if an employer oppresses his employee,I’ll stand with employee

If employee goes Home & oppresses his wife,I’ll stand with that woman

Overall oppression is my enemy

Interesting fact of the day: despite the moon only being 1/4th the diameter of the earth it is a whole 1/80th the mass! But in terms of volume it is 1/50th the volume.

People don't realize how the relationship between diameter and volume is non linear. So it creates these very unexpected differences, especially at large scales.

@Karthikdeva I always say that int eh Fediverse when you pick a server the main thing you are deciding on is if you trust the way in which the moderators will carry out their duties. That, hopefully, means there is a balance between acting and not acting that you are ok with.

At QOTO thats why we make our moderation decisions public and we welcome anyone to comment on it before we decide.

@Karthikdeva For me I Mobility solutions and servers(Mainframes) make me curious. I love to read about technology and people running popular sites/apps and how they do it.

Hi all! So, I would like to know what's new at your place?

As promised, mastodon.social code of conduct has been updated to add "casteism and advocation of casteism" to the list of explicitly prohibited offenses

@Karthikdeva This is what it looks like as an emoji:

Propaganda against @Mastodon on birdsite has begun. https://twitter.com/KabirTaneja/status/1192762205038661638?s=19

Holy hell how did I not hear of that! That sounds scary.

One thing QOTO provides for some is a way to ensure their posts wont get taken down by governments. In the past I've heard this said by several chinese members of the group. I am proud to offer that service and should the chinese government ever try to stop us we would of course refuse (one reason we host our servers in many redundant locations, particularly the data).

Sounds like india might be going down a similar path of censorship and if that is so, that is very scary :(
