Hey fediverse admins, have you made sure your instance is being counted by https://the-federation.info/ ? I love being able to respond with that stats site URL when people say "nobody uses federated social networks" elsewhere on the web :) It now counts nodes running any one of 36 server apps, across 9 federation protocols, including #OStatus, and #ActivityPub, reporting about 2 1/2 million users.
MASTODON HAS LOST ITS POLITICS. WITHOUT RIGHT-WINGERS TO GET MAD AT THE SITE WILL STAGNATE. THE CREATOR IS ALSO JEWISH, WHICH I FELT THE COMPULSION TO NOTE FOR SOME REASON

@p@lihat Another aspect of the fediverse that insulates it is that conversation is between groups of friends speaking their esoteric dialects. If you don't bring your own gang there's almost no one to talk to.
