For the record, I can't find a list of sandboxed/suspended instances for cybre.space anywhere.
@mathlover No, you won't find it.
Opal has this info about it :
>> cybre.space instance blocklist restricted to logged-in users
on this page, recommended reading : https://wowana.me/fediverse.xht
@design_RG Thanks! Seems to be one of those toxic places you mentioned earlier.
@design_RG Indeed, it seems a lot more toxic than some of the other places on the list, given that mastodon.social seems nicer to qoto.com and almost no one else hides their block list.
I suspect that cybre.space will be adding the other server I am on to their list, as they seem to have just figured out it doesn't block "fascist" servers either, as the user put it later in the thread.
@design_RG Anyway, I do really like it here compared to Twitter, and I love the way this place is laid out!
@design_RG I will seriously consider Pinafore. Tabs in Firefox is an interim solution before I replace the dying hard drive on this laptop in a few days, but an inadequate one.
(Yes, all my data is backed up elsewhere. Yes, I have another device to work on if this one dies.)
@mathlover Hope all remains well until you can replace it.
Pinafore runs in a web browser, and can be used even in Mobiles that way too. It's light, and switching instances is a snap -- ONE click action.
And I do use more than one tab with pinafore, keeping 3 or 4 open with different instances in each is possible.
It also displays MarkDown formatted content properly when the instance supports it, as well as accepting new posts formated in MD. All my blog announcements and most of my posting is done with MarkDown, either at GlitchSocial or Pleroma instances nowadays.
@mathlover It's definitely much better than Twitter, the fediverse, and much more interesting too - so much to discover.
I have lots of accounts and am active in various places, easy with a good client like Pinafore, which I use and recommend.
