One of the misconceptions I was labouring under before getting set up here was that Mastodon was itself a platform in the same sense that #Twitter or #Facebook are; i.e. that it was itself an entity that people communicated on.
And, judging by the responses to a recent @joinmastodon tweet, I wasn't alone in labouring under that misapprehension.This feels a lot more like #IRC with cross-server posting.
So from that perspective, this feels a bit like getting angry at Jarkko Oikarinen because someone banned you from an IRC politics chat for posting intentional misinformation lmao.
