get off my timeline / rant 

> get off my timeline

there is no algorithmic timeline here. if you see something you don't like it's on _you_. you followed someone who reposted that. you didn't went though the work of looking at the whole federated timeline, blocking domains you don't like. you wouldn't be making such a bullshit statement "get off my timeline" is if you did put in the work of forming your own reality.

instead you choose to be an obnoxious asshat who thinks he get's to decide what others can do. you want life to be an echo chamber to comfort your broken soul, but others have to build it for you. eternally stuck with a toddlers capacity for emotional regulation. likely broken by your boomer parents who chose career, broken by childcare institutions who don't care for children but slap them into emotional submission. this is the only thing you learned, so you try to slap others into mental submisson. when confronted with people where this doesn't work, the only thing left for you is to scream for authority.

@bonifartius Isn't it related to watching "Local", "Federated" and maybe hashtags, rather than "Home"?

Go on to a huge server and just "consume everything" (rather than build up your followings) isn't a recipe of happiness...

@niclas
sometimes i like to go on the federated timeline. i found many interesting people there, but you also do see some shit you'd rather not see. my choice is to stomach that, it's more good than evil in the end. i think that if you _can't_ stomach the federated timeline you either need a moderated server or maybe this is just not your medium. both are fine, the expectation that people stop voicing their thoughts isn't.
