Ngl seeing the American left wing bubble burst is wild and entertaining. I mean, I would never want Trump to be elected but people have gotten a huge reality check of what sort of online environment they were exposed to.
Honestly, everyone's been so burned by companies pulling the wool over their eyes that there's just no trust left. People were happy with Mozilla 5-6 years ago and nowadays everyone is a skeptic.
You might be right in this case but they weren't wrong.
I have an account that I use to read, but I've never posted on Mastodon. Decided to tweet after seeing this post and I see a privacy option called "Quiet Public - Fewer Algorithmic Fanfares".
Seriously, wtf is this? What does that even mean? If techie people like me can't figure out Mastodon then you can't expect the general public to do that. I'm not blaming this feature in particular, but Mastodon is quirky in all the wrong ways.
I know what you mean but saying this on a decentralised federated social network which encourages separate instances is very ironic
