People complain about inter-instance drama on the fediverse and, yeah I get it. It's super annoying when a bunch of people you don't know get into it for reasons you don't care about and it affects your social space. It does suck!
But the fediverse is a network of social spaces containing millions of people, owned and operated by a bunch of regular people, and people are messy so sometimes things will get messy on here. It sucks, but it's inevitable. Expected, even
To be honest given all that I'm kind of shocked how smoothly things seem to go for most of us on here most days
slightly pessimistic
@eniko Honestly, every time I see people complaining about 'drama', it just feels confrontational in how much society seems to have lost its collective ability to understand and manage social spaces... even the understanding that conflict is a thing that happens in social interaction, seems just *gone*, and it makes me worry about how on earth we're all supposed to recover from this
