I've made the move for at least a couple weeks at this point but I no longer plan to be active on here from now on. @jay.bsky.team has proven time and time again that she cares more about Bluesky's "investor value" than actual community

considering how adjacent they are to actual nsfw, agreed

It's honestly a mood-killer when they come up so frequently while I'm looking for art, I won't go after people that draw them but don't assume that everyone will be like you.
Forcing things on others without a go-ahead means everyone loses in the end.

LOVE you!
Transgender people are Chiitan's family.
I will continue to spread the message that we can create a world where it is normal for transgender people to love whoever they want.

ive settled in already ([email protected]) but might try another server based on a recommendation i got from another fedi user: https://bsky.app/profile/eblu.space/post/3lyoi4ladm22l

who knows i might be more inclined to use that one

eblu @eblu.space · Sep 13

honestly I'd probably say that you'll have a decent time on critter.cafe based on a quick glance at your profile. it's very cohost adjacent and they hardcode out all the numbers but the community there is very nice from what I've seen and they're good at keeping it running

A small place for critters tired of modern social media. Also check out critters.gay!

ive known about masto for a while but the usability was a bit confusing to start so thats why i havent been using it as much as bsky

On the off chance that some of you are seeing the smoke from the fire, moving to the Northsky PDS is 100% viable

Northsky Social Cooperative @transrights.northsky.social · Sep 11

Reminder! Northsky Social has two invite queues you can sign up for.

One is a high-priority queue for members of marginalized and at-risk groups. We highly recommend including your bluesky handle at signup so we can vet you faster.

You can find that sign up here: northskysocial.com/join

By my understanding Mastodon can't have that. It's intentionally fragmented thanks to ActivityPub federation, so you're generally meant to pick a server that matches your interest. There are large general servers but those loop back to being Twitter 2 from what I've been seeing.

Rifter (now on Mastodon!) @reefter.bsky.social · Sep 13

ideally id go with the second option as it puts me in full control of what i see though as i can choose to cut off from entire servers if they make me feel uncomfortable
unless this is already a thing in normal masto. this learning curve feels like trying to climb a mountain without gear

Rifter (now on Mastodon!) @reefter.bsky.social · Sep 13

so ill probably either have to join a server that a friend is hosting (none of my friends have the technical knowhow to host masto servers) or try to host one myself (even if i learn how to operate a server i cannot possibly pay for server costs)

Rifter (now on Mastodon!) @reefter.bsky.social · Sep 13

i have an account on masto but my only issues with it is are just. i want to seek out smaller servers since large ones will inevitably be a repeat of twitter but connecting to other servers is probably a huge pain if youre hosting a server
