The most absurd thing in modern social networks for me is that I can't delete posts from Home or Lists - just why? Because with "posts" from Inbox can be deleted, it's how it should be - why can't it be the same with . Why should it be just endless stream no one care about - never to be seen or found again and everyone think it's okay to flood each other timelines with too much of everything? I don't think it's normal that we supposed to not not scroll back down to previous days and not care what we received before.

Are there some other instances which have viewing local timelines of other instances feature beside and ? I was surprised mastodon.social do not have it.

I'm surprised is used for hosting hundreds of thousands videos no one watching but is not really used for movies . I don't think reason is because admins do not allow - I think users themselves don't want to, so they do not register and do not upload any movies. Though I sometimes time thinking about registering and uploading few movies.

@BeAware I think to avoid these kind of problem with moderation with wasting time blocking endlessly needs feature like "Block all domains except which are on Unblocked Exceptions List".

I wonder if there no-politics Fedi instances. It looks like all big instances and most of the small instances are aggressively political and news agenda centered. Smaller instances tend to be less about politics and news, but they also often just several people posting.

@malison @bookwyrm It is because books have different covers. To have another page for the same book but with different cover is advantage and very important so that people could have choice with which cover they want their book in their collections.

How ever one may not like Truth Social it plays major role in decentralization movement. It just so much crazy that people are okay with this that they all chose to use just this one social network website and to make just this one person to be richest person on the whole planet instead of create their own social network websites and be rich/to have their own portion of the pie too. has shown it's not difficult.

@jupiter_rowland @mikedev I think would have been more cool and successful if it didn't had app and was its own alternative Fediverse. I wonder if there probably are Hubzilla instances without it. And actually i find the way Hubzilla does "Share" posts to be better than Mastodon in a way that you really give additional visibility to self and post you share by making it appear once again on public timelines. As well it can prevent ActivityPub posts from appearing on your instance in case you'd want your instance to be zot protocol-only posts. I actually like current version of Hubzilla and I prefer old versions of Mastodon like Qoto and Fedibird.

@tokyo_0 @danie10 that sounds very interesting to try out - so even too good to be true. seems to be so interesting software. Not without drawbacks for me though because I find "hashtags/keyword follow/subscribe" feature which my instance has to be most important for me in social network website. In hubzilla defense hubzilla has instance search function which available even if you not logged in, kind of very slow but it works.

@danie10 thank you, I think I got it, though I should admit everything is really difficult to find with interface - even just to get to this Import function where Nomadic Identity is hidden you should unintuitively go to "Channels" - "Create new channel" page instead of just simply find it in Settings menu like with Mastodon.

@danie10 can you give a little hint on how to use/activate this Nomadic Identity function so we could try it and understand what it is and how it works. I looked at my profile settings and didn't find any mention of it.
