@borzoi you're talking to the admin of that instance, a large portion of their users are functionally retarded when it comes to anything that isn't on wikipedia. Some are sort of mediocre users, but I've never seen a single post from that instance in my several years here that impressed me

@coyote is there anyone who actually uses that instance besides him? I just assume that most instances are single user instances

@borzoi yeah, he mandated that anyone who uses the instance has a stem degree or is in school for stem, he also verifies it. He has a long list of very personal information and I wouldn't even consider his instance worth using for any reason, because of this reason. If it were the last fedi instance with open reg I would just make my own for my friends

>he also verifies it

I never verified any STEM thing. You can't onboard normies to the Fediverse with an instance whose timeline is full of anime and windmills. Qoto serves a critical niche as the most based SFW centrist instance with open registrations. Without that niche Fediverse would die. Thank Goodness for Qoto.

@coyote

@category_mirrory @coyote freemo's misstep here aside, i find qoto users to be of fairly high intelligence. i hope to join you all there sometime in the future.

Anyways, the screamers and the crazy people on poa.st as they call it, who loved Donald Trump, who have plenty of Hitler iconography in their fedi icons, who thought Donald Trump was the greatest thing. Oh, it’s something... but the fact of the matter is most of them are childless single men who masturbate to anime. They are not real political players. These are not people who matter in the overall course of humanity.

>These are not people who matter in the overall course of humanity.

The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.

>a graph that has nothing to do with the topic

The topic is why people do not transition from the inferior Twitter to the superior Fediverse, and the answer is the cost of transition, which Qoto reduces for SFW normies and no other instance does.

Lowering the cost of transition using an onboarding instance directly corresponds to the idea of lowering the activation energy of a reaction using a catlyst or enzyme.

The original graph showed instead the dual idea of increasing the temperature (ambient energy) to "lower" the relative activation energy, which causes the same effect (an increase in the shaded area of potential molecules amenable to reaction).

no, the topic is why people do not migrate from the inferior Somalia to the superior Iceland, and instead of trying to find an answer maybe you should wonder what makes Somalia inferior and Iceland superior in the first place

>no, the topic is why people do not migrate from the inferior Somalia to the superior Iceland

Immigration restrictions, which in this case are designed to make the cost of transition **higher**. Are you trying to say that you don't want anyone new to join the Fediverse?

>maybe you should wonder what makes Somalia inferior and Iceland superior in the first place

A certain Tribe wanted to enslave the local population and so deliberately poisoned their culture. Man without a culture is nothing but a Beast.

Speaking of which, the culture of Iceland hasn't been doing too hot [sic] lately, has it? It's almost like a poisoned culture is a universal problem.

no just the normalfaggots, they should remain contained in twitter and not pollute the fediverse

>no just the normalfaggots, they should remain contained in twitter and not pollute the fediverse

"Remain contained"? They live on the same IRL planet, and they make IRL polices that are enacted through IRL force. The astroturfing of Twitter is the mechanism by which they are coordinated, and pulling them out of Twitter has a massive advantage all by itself.

I could write two more paragraphs connecting this to human thermodynamics, but you seem incapable of responding even to your own two-part questions, much less mine:

you're still confusing the cause and effect

>"N"

Already disproven, since "W" culture is declining drastically as well.

>you're still confusing the cause and effect

Yesterday's effect is today's cause you "N"incompoop.

>ungenuine. i looked up the kanzi for metonymy and replaced the transliteration for it in the translation output manually"

this faggot wasn't shoved into lockers enough
@hakui They had to criminalize it.

No one wanted there to be any more Revenge of the Nerds movies.
