Fediverse Anonymous 05/09/2025 (Fri) 02:21:54 No. 517194
Redpill me on it. Are there some good instances? What are the downsides, compared to twitter/bluesky?
>>517194 As someone who's been on the fediverse for about six years now: Fuck off. We're full.
>>517252 ok I will join
>>517194 Who the fuck thought the name "FED-iverse" was a good idea?
>>517194 Note: this is just from my own experience lurking the unfiltered stream for about a year. If you make an account and tailor your feed your experience may differ. The fediverse holds the most radically unhinged leftists you will ever find. Every other post is about how much of a fascist Trump is and how they're literally genociding transgender people and all Trump supporters should get the guillotine and so on. In the comments, everyone pats each other on the back for how #resistance they all are, fighting the power by updooting the "correct" posts. The most insidious thing about the whole place to me was the almost universally shared belief that it is your political and moral obligation to stay extremely mad about everything all the time. Cutting back on the amount of time you spend doomscrolling through the unending apocalypse is considered tantamount to letting the terrorists win. By the way, I'm not saying this from a place of "they didn't let me say the nigger word!" or any such /pol/tarded nonsense. The reason I stayed for as long as I did is that I'm broadly on the same side, politically - nobody else was talking as frankly about Gaza as the fediverse was, for instance. It's just that the people there are so unimaginably addicted to hatred that the whole place gradually became intolerable. I like it much better here.
>>522473 that's fucking hilarious

>>523474 >No chill weeb loli enjoyer instance Guess there's no place for me on the fediverse
>>522473 So cope and seethe is a way of life for them?
>>523476 The most oppressed race.
I've thought about using it but I don't really enjoy using social media. But I kind of need a 4chan replacement just so I have some unfiltered human output. Is it true that some of the instances closed down registration? I'm not gonna learn a bunch of fucking rules just to shitpost. Fuck it maybe I should just permanently log off.
>>523525 The kikes have successfully made the internet gradually less interesting and more of a pain in the ass. Everything requires a login, a phone number, endless rules, centralization. If you stay logged on, you play their game. If you log off, they have won by shutting you up and shutting you out. Focus on fun things but keep an eye open for the next shitposting opportunity. That's what I do. Even if you try to go completely offline for a hobby, you'll run into a problem somewhere and have to go online to look it up which brings you right back to the initial problem.
>>523526 The fact you're posting this on a forum that doesn't require an account proves that defeating them is as simple as saying "no" to what they're offering.

>>523474 Gamelibertyclub fucking rocks all other instances lick toes but goodluck getting in it's only for the coolest of the cool, and why isn't baraag on that list? Another exclusive site for only cool people with r34 and hentai since r34paheal is a FAG site now and bans loli
>>523581 and that's a good thing
>>523581 Ahh 2005. Now that was PEAK Internet.
>>517252 What a weird way to come out as a homoโ€ฆ
>>517194 it's fucking gay as fuck
It's reddit on fucking steroids.
FSE and Poast mog
we need federated imageboards tbh the fucking r*dditors already have lemmy
>>523810 >federated imageboard how would that even work?
>>517194 federate these balls in your jaws faggot
Tried to join the fediverse while using tor. My mastodon account is still pending "review" 3 days later and my bluesky account got instantly banned and they ignored my e-mails. So yeah tor users not welcome.
>>524222 Same experience with all (((modern services))) using my static home IP. >Verify you're human >Pending verification >Drink a verification can >There was an error. Don't contact customer services because there isn't one. I mean it's my fault for using firefox and clearing cookies I guess.
>>524225 Hmph. I grew up on the early days of the internet where freedom of speech and privacy were respected. Now I'm supposed to accept being someone's bitch as if that's the norm? It's sick and twisted is what it is. Now I get there's scammers and fraudsters and thieves and hackers and state actors and all that... but still. It's not right.
>>524226 The other one is: >Sign up with your email >Ok now verify your phone number Cool thanks, don't have one of those. But even if I did: >This number is already in use, give a different one.
For anyone wanting to check it out, just know that the fediverse should be treated as a literal federation of multiple nations of varying size, where none can really exert power over the others. Part of its charm to me is just being able to join/host a small instance, avoiding most retards and schizos while still being able to curate what I see. I mostly just follow artists that have an account on misskey and my feed is 90% anime tiddy, which is what I wanted.
You'll be cutting yourself from algorithmic / janny-gorithmic curation cold turkey for a while to really get used to it, which I guarantee will shatter whatever worldview you have right now. You will stop wearing ideologies as hats and not be addicted to internet fights anymore. You will want to make a website with no javascript and it will be cringe, and you will be proud of it and want to make it cringer over time. The discourse will grow alien, you won't have strong opinions about "grocerybros" or whatever the current debatebabble is, and you'll generally cease to be possessed by spooks that centralized platforms exist to keep people possessed by. It's like drinking distilled water after going from soda to soda your whole life. It is worth it, and you'll get to experience other sites as a tourist as you start surfing like you did when you were a kid at the public library computers.
>>523525 Baraag is restricted (you need to send an email with your artwork or something like that). Misskey requires a japanese IP. Both of those things happened due to Twitter users leaving in the wake of Elon's takeover and shitting up both instances.

>>532196 >>522473 lol, lmao
The only based instance that I'm aware of is poast.org
>>522473 So it's Reddit with less traffic and more open support for violence? Gross.
>>523474 This is accurate, the guy who says there's only leftists just never managed to look outside the blocklist.

>>523474 how do I join these servers?
I thought fediverse could be a potential future until I realised that you can't delte posts on the fediverse which means it will never catch on
>>523474 What's the one with Chen called?
