What's the main difference between the main instance of Mastodon and others? I'm checking a list of other instances, but I don't know if should move to another
@Kyuuk Other instances have more of a HOA vibe where they squabble over petty things and block each other because of a personal beef between admins.
I've noticed that Sakurajima and it's counterpart are run by... Bigots...? Picky bigots. That is, they're mean.
There are also the really free speech instances, but then, you have to deal with chan culture and shitposteurs.
It would be nice to have something more in the middle, free expression but, uh, leave the outright hate at the door.
Qoto is an instance for STEM (Science Technology and so on) individuals, although it's not really an anime instance per se. It does have a long character limit (65k) and quote toots.
@olives It seems like choosing an instance is a "hard" task. You need to be really careful or your instance might not be what you were looking for.
Thanks for the advice, it's good to know the truth about the Sakurajima.
Do you enjoy your instance?
@Kyuuk It's a fairly decent instance, although it's mainly academics and techies, a few of whom seem to like anime.
The admin doesn't allow it to turn into a chan, and I'm not really seeing sexphobia, which is a plus.
The admin is okay, laidback, maybe a bit impulsive in his takes? Then again, he gets the job done. It's not an easy one.
@olives Good to know that you're liking your instance.
Yeah, being a admin seems to be a complicated task.
