#mastodon the coolest #cyberpunk stuff happening in a loooong time

" We are the ELECTRONIC MINDS, a group of free-minded rebels. Cyberpunks.
We live in Cyberspace, we are everywhere, we know no boundaries.
This is our manifest. The Cyberpunks' manifest."

@Gargron I just found out about PeerTube that's compatible with Mastodon, and I'm thinking ActivityPub could be a killer feature for federated platforms.

Closed platforms like FaceBook and Twitter actively work to prevent users from sharing media between them.

Meanwhile, embracing integration is a huge benefit from user perspective, as it means you can primarily use your platform of choice, but you can still interact with the users of other platforms.

Greedy cowards, employing and the screwing over those who have little other opportunity for gainful employment.

Raping the land.

Subverting the commonwealth.

And too afraid of what people will think if they really knew that the decline in coal jobs isn't anything new. automation has been claiming jobs in that industry for 60 years.

Blaming it on solar and wind... trying to defend a dying business model only to avoid inconvenience.

My ancestral and family home was bought and mined by them.

"reclaimed"

It was a forest, rich and wild.

Now it's a rolling grassland.

It's not natural. It is not recognizable.

This is the issue I truly engage on.

The coal industry is evil, predatory, and too busy blaming strawmen for their failures.

I show them no quarter.

Trust your admins, picture edition.

This is an illustrated toot showing the admin interface that lets us admins see ALL OF YOUR TOOTS

Media filters, DM's, delete ability

All from the comfort of a browser.

TRUST YOUR ADMIN!!!!!!!

so happy to see #peertube grow! we were one of the first federated sites and now there are tons! https://instances.peertu.be/instances #hispagatos #peertube https://video.hispagatos.org

Mastodon is NOT a panacea!

Toxic behavior DOES exit within the Federverse.

HOWEVER

Because each instance is it's own 'dumpster'... fires tend to be contained and are vastly more manageable.

We also have a LOT OF GOOD ADMINS who work to ensure any dumpster fires are contained.

If you find your instance is a bit of a dumpster fire head over to https://instances.social and nose around. The are a *LOT* of well moderated instances across a range of topics.

This huge fucking mess called "the Bolivarian Revolution" has made the Left a parasite among venezuelans

Every time I talked to someone and mention any of the common terms we use, I immediately lost them

It's an interesting exercise to try to talk and express ideas without using any of the metaphors and common terms we all use. I've found that when it's done right, anyone from the Right will agree with you

People! @Scathach is looking for Spanish-speakers to converse with ^.^ Anyone?

Very important thread on how Mastodon still fails to have proper privacy - I agree that sharing the data is incrementally better, but agree there are some advantages to centralizisation.
