That would explain it. Fuck those guys. So much for free speech.
@oneway

@terryenglish @oneway Somewhere I have a screencap of Rob Colbert explaining why he is hiding the fediverse from Gabbers. Basically he implies they are a bunch of pussies.

He's not wrong!

@judgedread @terryenglish @oneway Imagine needing a gab premium account to do things that the rest of the fedi basically do for free

@Jessica @oneway @terryenglish This. He crippled Mastodon on purpose.

@judgedread @oneway @terryenglish Gab is an echo chamber. It's not any better than twitter. Just because it federates with *some* instances doesn't mean it's federated. It might as well not be on the fediverse at this point.

@judgedread @oneway @terryenglish I bet you they went to the mastodon interface just because they could get away with doing less to update the interface

@judgedread @oneway @terryenglish IF THEY WEREN'T PUSSIES they would federate. fuc'n cowards

@Jessica @oneway @terryenglish Can confirm. Mastodon's post then comment model is closer to old Gab than Pleroma's self contained post model - at least that's what it looks like in my limited browsing of Mastodon instances. I'm on Pleroma here.

@judgedread @oneway @terryenglish I'm on pleroma too

@judgedread @oneway @terryenglish I don't like mastodon because the devs are sjw echo chamber fucktards

@Jessica Pleroma is way better. The mastodon interface is crap. @oneway @judgedread

@terryenglish @Jessica @oneway @judgedread
TERRY, PLEASE REMOVED THE REPEATED TWEET PLEASE

@Jojothegoodperson I have no idea what you're talking about. @Jessica @judgedread @oneway

@terryenglish @Jessica @judgedread @oneway
but we glitch and I can be friends again

@Jojothegoodperson Do you really want a friend who thinks you're retarded?

@terryenglish
look, me being retarded gives him cute reflexes

@Jojothegoodperson Self-respect JoJo. That is more important than having some weirdo who finds socially awkward people amusing as a "friend".

@terryenglish
but i would do anything to get a guy to like me

@Jojothegoodperson Is that person a guy? I thought they were a woman?

@terryenglish
yes he's a guy

@Jojothegoodperson You have proof? I don't know if I believe that. They used to be on Spinster, A site that hates men so much they won't even let trans woman on it.

@Jojothegoodperson @terryenglish Including .... robbing a bank?

@static @terryenglish
no i would not

@terryenglish
you there?

@terryenglish @oneway @judgedread Yeah pleroma has a much more chillaxed interface and it's much easily more customized. Unlike mastodon where the only way is to use a browser plugin like stylus, but on here all i have to do is import the theme file on any instance, and i can export on any instance

@terryenglish @judgedread @oneway (Not all) people on mastodon tend to be more sjw-y than on pleroma

@judgedread @oneway @terryenglish I feel like mastodon is trying too hard to copy twitter. I feel that pleroma has a completely different feel to it and it tends to be the better interface imo

also mastodon Isn't traditional fediverse. they changed a bunch of shit from the spec prob to fuck with people on other instances for no conceivable reason

@Jessica @judgedread @oneway @terryenglish but its enraging that themes only save client side

@a7 @judgedread @oneway @terryenglish Pain in the ass but mastodon's theming is bare minimum at best. I shouldn't have to do custom CSS or w/e just to change a color

@Jessica @judgedread @oneway @terryenglish ya i have barely used mastodon, first encounter with this protocol and stuff was gnusocial like years back, then i heard about mastodon, got annoyed that people werent mentioning gnusocial, was never involved in these sorta systems, then i was shilling some shit so i made a pleroma account, then a gab account then a twitter account, never had a twitter until last year

@a7 @judgedread @oneway @terryenglish Pleroma instances look different from one-another because the end user and the admin both have control over the theme. each user can have a completely different looking theme and nobody is doing anything out of the ordinary. There's a reason why pleroma instances have so many themes, because pleroma is made to bend over backwards for the user.

Mastodon instances mostly look the same, same color, same frontpage but all that changes is the admin, maybe a picture in the corner and who's blocked / not blocked

@a7 @judgedread @oneway @terryenglish Sure, in some areas, mastodon has more options. But in others (like personalization) it more than makes up for it.

@a7 @judgedread @oneway @terryenglish I don't even think mastodon even has this, and i use this all the time

@Jessica God I love Pleroma. I wish Librem Social was a Pleroma instance 😞 @a7 @oneway @judgedread

@terryenglish @a7 @oneway @judgedread too bad it isn't and is one of the worst instances. the admins there are absolute fucks

@Jessica You trying to get me in trouble again? 😊 @a7 @oneway @judgedread

@Jessica @judgedread @oneway @terryenglish ya i dont mind pleroma much, other than every week there seems to be some sorta drama involving a dev and way too many conversations about new blocking methods, but i dont write any code for it so that doesnt effect me i just slowly figured out to stop following any devs. Sticker thing seems silly to me but too each their own.

@a7 @judgedread @oneway @terryenglish The sticker thing's usability depends on the admin adding them in. I wish someday they'll let you make your own sticker thingos

@Jessica @judgedread @oneway @terryenglish ive seen you guys using them from there, they just show up as images in your post on my end, im guessing they are formated in line on your guys end

@a7 @judgedread @oneway @terryenglish No they're images. They send as images to keep functionality. it works like you think it would

@Jessica @oneway @terryenglish Gargron is a complete piece of shit, but I respect him more than Torba. At least he takes his vile stand and sticks with it.

@Jessica @oneway @terryenglish Torba is a boring normal not very smart guy. This can't be repeated often enough. He not only had no idea what free speech online implied, he never spent that much time online, being a scheming grifter at heart. He would be much better off fully federating and taking advantage of the trolling opportunities triggering unsuspecting users of new instances. Endless controversy, but without any collateral damage.
