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@qoto.org @Kyuuk@mastodon.social Weird take. The admin of Sakurajima has been nothing but polite and helpful to me. I've only been around a few months but I haven't witnessed anything I'd call bigoted.
@NullNowhere @Kyuuk That is good for you. I've seen enough of them and their sister site.
Anyhow, please leave us alone.
@olives Yes, I'm even impressed with so many replies in my question hehe
@olives @NullNowhere Well, the important thing is that you feel better on Qoto than Sakurajima, so you did the best decision!
@Kyuuk Yeah, no, I'm not going to debate what counts as "real bigotry" or what out-group is okay to shame.
Not going there.
This is a strange thread because they're usually not this responsive, lol, usually very quiet.
