I'm not sure where "global communism" and "fascist state headed by Vladimir Putin" intersect, but it sure ain't anywhere sane. Defederation from the Lemmygrad school of insanity seems like a grand old time.
People have been beating each other to death with rocks over gods & demons since we used barter, my guy. It's a problem inherent to tribalism. "Big money" doesn't get people burning their daughters and sisters as witches.
Physical media also fades over time, unfortunately. The most realistic solution is unironically digital piracy; "keep circulating the tapes" can keep digital media alive indefinitely. It's not enough for the publisher to keep putting out copies, bootlegs are preservation, too.
You know, I don't know if I want him dead in prison or squealing like a stuck pig more. I'm inclined towards Team Sellout on an intellectual level, but his corpse slumped in a concrete box has a certain visceral appeal.
You're an idiot. Also a techy linux weirdo, so I'm not surprised. Did you know other people have hobbies that do not involve Linux, and would like to be able to discuss them without someone like you bending themselves into a pretzel over how the Fediverse has no room for filthy casuals who don't know what FOSS stands for. Gatekeep harder! This will surely save the fediverse from normies.
40-something sysadmins love both bicycles and video games, so I'm really not surprised. All of those "read-only" bits aren't here and they aren't moving, and nobody's making them because the moderation tools are awful. Kbin doesn't even have an API.
When I want to watch a play or musical, I generally look for expert reviews.
I generally look for the opinions of like, actual human beings with no skin in the game. Reviewers gotta say what they need to say to pay their bills. Reddit was great for stuff like that, or the semi-official subreddits of specific obscure headphone companies, vinyl record swapping, local-town-community type subreddits... Stuff this place seems like it will literally never have. It's a shame.
No shit you think it's fine, you're a techy linux weirdo. Good luck discussing like, musicals or tabletop roleplaying games or homemade moonshine or anything in that general vicinity of "niche" on here.
It's small enough to literally have zero posts of a variety of topics, and that number isn't improving. Get outside of your own circle every once in a while.
I went and looked at tildes as a result of this, and it seems aggressively dead. Like, the fediverse is pretty dead and tildes makes it look positively thriving in comparison. Yeesh.
There are no people I find interesting. I cannot stress this enough, Mastodon has absolutely jack shit for content. A hashtag with relevancy to me might have two posts, EVER, both from dead accounts.
It is a barren wasteland. I am very much tired of people assuming I want to be spoonfed content when I just want there to be any content at all.
Hopefully this means there are accounts on Mastodon actually worth interacting with. Like 99.9999% of posts on Mastodon are literally just about Mastodon, or stupid tech shit I don't care about.
If they're based on "Judeo-Christian" ideology, there's like a 99% chance of multiple genocides, then. Christianity was worse for humanity than three Hitlers put together.
The police are a form of state-backed organized crime. They're far more likely to kill you than anything else. Bit like asking a rabid dog for protection.
