@dtluna Patriarchal isn't a good term to use, tbh. It's too broad. Not to mention that I don't believe much of the west are living in one now, given that women have more freedom than we did in the past and there are some in very powerful positions. Although with that comes similar pressures that men had as well as our own. There is slow progress but it is much better where I am than in other places on the planet. Even then, I don't think it is patriarchy. That is more of a system where men are in the leader roles making the decisions and we follow the male line, but that in itself doesn't mean they will implement shit laws. I think it has to be that plus something else.
-
@dtluna Not especially men, no. Women are equally shit, perhaps in different ways since it can manifest in different ways. This attitude that men are especially worse is exactly what doesn't help the relations between the sexes, and it ruins healthy relationships for good people. This is exactly the judgementalness that is hard to overcome, and then it leaves people disillusioned.
-
@dtluna Yes. You have arseholes on both sides, and it is the worst examples that people judge on.
-
@dtluna I still don't like how things are now.
-
I really don't like how shit relationships between men and women have become.
And I have such shit self-esteem. How do I compare with it all?
-
@dude I meant mastodon in the past. Since it just implements all sorts of things that aren't compatible with what is already here. But no, I don't expect Hannes to keep working on something he isn't invested in or using any more. It would be his choice.
-
@dude Yeah... I don't really know what to make of that. Maybe it should have gone its own way.
-
One of the reasons that I really liked the fediverse before all these features mastodon implemented was that it did feel like an open federated network. It was different, and I really liked how everything posted was public. We have a global, public and personal timeline to view at our leisure.
I liked it better this way. Felt more like a community of people, and that there were more open conversations to read and join... and then leave when we wanted to. You lose that the moment that you start closing things off, start trying to make things more private or for a select few people. Even blocking here was nice, because you didn't have to get notices someone made but they could still follow threads.
But then we got people that didn't want to have conversations. That didn't want to hear opinions they didn't agree with. That wanted to be very selective about who could enter their mentions to talk with them. Could see their posts. And then we got scopes.
Where did the fediverse that I knew go?
-
@kaniini Ahh... so it has to be where you follow each other? That might be it. Doesn't look like moon follows this account now, idk.
-
@kaniini It makes even less sense to me than the scope to unlist from public TLs. You just need to follow the person... as long as it works on your instance. I didn't see one of moon's follower-only posts on here, tho.
-
@wizard @ayy I don't know what all this means. xD
-
@wowaname Yep. We are still GS. I still prefer it. Especially when I think about things like this.
-
We used to be worried about breaking threads... now we don't care. We implement it with scopes deliberately.
-
I didn't realise how much I was missing due to scopes.
-
Interesting. I don't think I see followers-only posts over here?
-
@nameface @ayy @rice I'm the cutie bully, not the cutie to be bullied!
-
@nameface @ayy @rice Excuse me, but I do the bullying cuties around here.
-
@ayy @rice Aw! I hope so. She reminds me of myself because we are similar but different. In a good way. :)
-
@roka Maybe they are inside somewhere!
