@dee @HarneyBA
well, i am still here, technically. just lurking.
really the main reason i left is because 90% of my interactions became meta bullshit, and having to be associated by proxy with gleason/spinster/etc due to being a pleroma dev was not pleasant for me -- basically gleason was the final cherry on an entire pile of shit.
as for the fediverse verses twitter -- twitter has a "low quality interaction" filter built into the platform which for the most part means that snipey concern trolls don't even make it to my mentions.
Pleroma sort of has that (I designed it), but the problem is that the concern trolls here can get traction, leading to instance admins doing instance blocks, etc, so you can't get around the meta bullshit if you're an admin. because of *that* type of fuckery, most of my friends have gone back to posting on twitter anyway.
and, because i was *previously* an admin, and because the concern trolls warped whatever bullshit about me into whatever, i feel i am largely a liability to any other instance. so, it's just best for me to lurk, if anything.

@dee @HarneyBA but if i start to use the fediverse in significant quantity in future, it will certainly not be as an admin. i'm not going to ever be involved in this trainwreck as a dev or admin ever again. whether or not i use the fediverse then ultimately comes down to what the majority of my friends want to do -- they got fedi fatigue and went back to twitter.
