"For most of history and in different cultures, homeschooling was a common practice by family members and local communities.[6] Enlisting professional tutors was an option available only to the wealthy. Homeschooling declined in the 19th and 20th centuries with the enactment of compulsory school attendance laws. However, it continued to be practised in isolated communities. Homeschooling began a resurgence in the 1960s and 1970s with educational reformists dissatisfied with industrialized education."

"Home education and apprenticeship continued to remain the main form of education until the 1830s.[9] However, in the 18th century, the majority of people in Europe lacked formal education.[10] Since the early 19th century, formal classroom schooling became the most common means of schooling throughout the developed countries."

As they said, if you block an instance and someone from another instance shares from that instance, then you cant see that boost anyway. So the argument has always been moot and self defeating.

Moreover, any "bad content" wouldnt get shared in the first place since our instance is made up of good actors who dont promote content that is contrary to that.

How do rock climbers get such ridiculous strength to size ratios? I'm too big to be able to move my body weight around like this, and when I drop size I'm too weak. Super impressive.

Some notes on what you just posted...

Not everyone on Fedi(fediverse, of which mastodon is one way to connect to) will agree with you and your decisions. Choosing to get vaxxed or not vaxxed will make you a target if you post/boast about it.

The same goes for other decisions you decide to broadcast into the aether.

Should you be targeted, the only people that can do anything (which won't be much) is you the the admin who runs the server you can an account on. Which will likely be just a mere bam/block.

This is the great strength/weakness of Fedi. Your decisions have consequences and your protections are whatever you put into place yourself.

With that said, I hope you find what you're looking for- learn about unfiltered/self-moderated media, and find out what this federated network has to offer.

with my bills so high, i'd have to be stoned to work for free

How much will I be paid?

Well, I'm kinda needing money right now to stay afloat.... ill have to bail on this and look up some gigs then. Best of luck to the office though!

I was under the impression that the steam deck could maintain locally stored games. Although many steam users have libraries bigger than most small business servers, I don't think it was ever really meant to hold such space...

There were other options before Tor and there will be others after. Versatility is the natural ability of survivors who avoid otherwise inevitable demise by succumbing to natural antagonizing factors.
