i wish there were less snark about mastodon here, i see it a lot and i don’t get it… both protocols have such good things in them

I think it has less to do with Mastodon itself and more to do with some of its more obnoxious users.

i mean yeah but bluesky also has some incredible losers and if there’s any discourse about it on mastodon i certainly haven’t seen it here there are tons of people tossing off “mastodon sucks” jokes

One major difference is that in Mastodon some of the bigger drama sources are admins of whole servers. They can, and often do, cut off whole other servers for even the smallest of infractions of their sometimes arbitrary rules. To my knowledge, there is no real equivalent of that over here.

Still, you can find a server culture that works for you and avoid those engaged in whatever drama you aren't interested in. I appreciate both platforms but do really like the idea of an ad-free, surveillance-free option. But I do find it hard there to find what I'm looking for. This gets closer.

It's still kind of a pain in the ass having to migrate your account between servers, especially since you can't migrate posts. All because your server admin was on a power trip.

there's some other non-masto server software that allows for post migration, but otherwise yeah the ux for migration isn't too great
