A little bit of nihilism can make it easier to get through the day sometimes.

I swear, it's entirely possible my forum/chat moderation experience is the age of one of their interns/junior programmers.
Today's word is "performative" and tomorrow's will be "tool."
I may or may not have some ideas how this can be achieved.
Step 1: create a wholly unrelated post on a tiny acct and pin it, remove any trace of keywords that will flag to fly under the radar
Step 2: gather the shitposting army there
Step 3: 48hrs and let the games begin
Innocuous post with a generic statement
I thought I was just getting worse at Computer
Looking forward to client emails "chat, is this arb clause fr fr or are we cooked?" In the near future π«
I want to connect meaningfully with people, not with a torment nexus.
If they are not aware of why the wording of this raises eyebrows, so much of what has been going on here lately makes a lot more sense. And here I was concerned about how well @imgcat.io would do explaining moderation standards, thank you for setting the bar low enough to trip over.

I love that about people. I love seeing it on Wikipedia when someone fixes a mistake in something I wrote or does a technical thing I only half understand. The diversity of skills and personalities makes us better.

The people behind the usernames are saying enough is enough. We want a place where your voice matters, on a platform that believes above all else community is what social media is about. If this resonates with you, join us on discord to start building a new way forward. discord.gg/dFHkDuVK
Ever been so disillusioned by how a site treats its users that you share a post about a project you started, and a month later it has become a grassroots effort to reshape what it means to be a social media platform?
Sure would be a shame if the userbase instead used bsky to coordinate migration to new sites outside the AT protocol considering bans are getting handed out with reckless abandon to anyone who dissents
Best description I have ever seen of banana ball, let's go 9th inning!
shayna I need you to get into banana ball with me. It's like blaseball if it was real. It's like baseball if it was insane.
somebody is about to unironically try to tie in TNGs "measure of a man" into the current ai discourse I can feel it in my bones
@bubbajimbo.bsky.social how would you describe Discuit.org within the character limit here? Cozy coffee shop populated by actual humans behind the usernames, and enjoyers of both nonsense memes and long form discussions where nuance hasn't completely given up the ghost?
They are still out there and new ones popping up often- just have to know which little corners of the internet to look to find em, and be prepared to dig through so much slop on the way
And just like that the day is already off to a great start getting to see such a happy pup pic! Think my new goal in life is to be as unbothered as they appear to be, please give em an extra cuddles from me:)
Exhausting is the same word have been using watching it happen across multiple platforms for the past few years, least while we watch all the joy get sucked out of sites we get to see some cute critter pics here and there?
Maybe not using the protocol, but the part of being one in 500,000 who actually wants to run a site rings true at @imgcat.io
Users across multiple platforms are organizing in real time and the message has become clear: we the users can and will build it ourselves (open source and 501c3 to boot)
Mediocre is literally in my name and even I, a person who commonly calls myself an absolute donut, knows better
You think I canβt join another one if it sucks here? I can! I will!!!!!!!!
