the analogy is wonky because i'm not clever but you get the gist of it

it works very well for a very select few people and you will be yelled very loudly at if it doesn't work for you

mastodon is like email insofar as if all of Google was a gender studies major that blocked all of Yahoo for trimming their toenails in the students common area and warned everyone against Hotmail for being a libertarian and filtered it such that only a few emails made it there from them

sometimes i do lick my wounds too much. but that's abuse ptsd for you and it's hard to heal from

what's important is that i'm trying my best and that i know there are people who can see that despite everything else, so i know it's real and can ignore those who disagree.

reminding myself i'll close the tab and nothing bad from here will follow me in the AFK

good night

you know how removing most context from any sort of declaration can open things to extremely harmful interpretations?

now consider how fractured any communication is on the where you can barely even see all replies to a post, let alone all previous posts if only a specific one from an account was fetched

your instance only sees the posts from an account if they're fetched

Also, for the sake of your users, avoid automated blocking systems/tools.

Happy admining and block responsibly! 👍

i have also been here since april 2017 folks

computer fairies was founded in april 13 2017

i've been pushed out of my own space because i wanted to be friends with the wrong people, apparently, literally it was a personal spat with a bigger instance admin which turned into "ooo this person is a mad abuser"

i wanted rhys to be my friend, not to be ghosted and belittled by them
