@LWFlouisa Havent seen you in years, figured you left the fediverse.. Its wonderful to see you again!

@freemo Then I found out others were having the same experience with Eugene.

@LWFlouisa Yea QOTO got royally screwed by him too... He has been a disapointment for a lot of people.

@freemo its awful people got screwed, but its also oddly reassuring.

Once I got more technical ( I am learning that every I learn to code, Im figuring out how much I dont know ) I was wanting to fork Mastodon.

And make ita bit more like Diaspora, but having aspects that make Mastodon more current.

@LWFlouisa @freemo Oh that would be interesting. Mastodon needs a bit more shaking up. The basis is ok but there are so many things that could be better.

@trinsec

A fork is a lot of wirk (QOTO is a fork).. but yea its desperately needed for someone to fork mastodon and fix eugenes mess ups IMO

@LWFlouisa

@freemo @LWFlouisa
There are a few interesting Mastodon forks around already, might be worth trying to get off those? Glitch for example? Or am I talking noob now?

@trinsec @freemo Yea Glitch and Soapbox I'm really enjoying.

I wanting to run one instance local only to test out chatbots first. That's mostly because I'm more used to static website generator.

But I thought why not test the decentralized west world like concept at a small scale so I know it actually works.

@LWFlouisa

Like so many things in the fediverse there is a large group of people who wills uspend you for running soapbox at all.. apparently only Nazis run soapbox or something like that...

@trinsec

@freemo @trinsec

Ah ok misread, yea that Soapboax. Yea even though I'm a lefty, I figured out I'm missing a huge part o the story.

Gleasonator is an odd ball, but he's not...terrible I guess.

( My fear is having to much of a soapbox. )

Follow

@LWFlouisa

He is very brutally anti-trans... gleasanator's views are understandable one that incites ire.. i wont defend him for that... that said he does try to act polite in how he deals with people for whatever little bit thats worth.
