There are four genders of grievances with mastodon:

-"the app is shit" (uses the official app)
-"it's not twitter, make it more like twitter!"
-some complete nonsense based on a complete misunderstanding of how it works
-legitimate grievances that older users have been suggesting for years

@prehensile@tech.lgbt I've seen exactly one accurate news article about Mastodon, and *somehow* it was even an opinion piece: nrc.nl/nieuws/2022/11/04/het-i

Everything else has been so so bad :(

Please keep wearing masks, the pandemic isn't over, holidays make it worse, and a lot of us disabled people feel completely abandoned.

@zkat It just makes me sad watching cool people come over, treat m.s as the "default" instance, then rail about how awful the whole fediverse is off of one damned server.

I love being on mastodon cause i can be 23 making peepee poopoo jokes and y'all will laugh and then go back to talking about philosophy or politics or programming or botany or whatever

Lots of folk end up writing these, and most of them are better than mine, but mine is at least highly specific improbableisland.com/potato.ph

Wat mij betreft is felle kritiek de enige valide berichtgeving over dat voetbalkampioenschap.

@silvereagle@furry.engineer Gonna be fun when they realize it has the same etymological root, just a few steps further removed than they think

@floris Ah, I see. I interpreted the phrase "contact me with suggestions or..." to mean that third-party suggestions were also accepted. If that's not the case, then don't mind me :)

@floris Hey, I understand the reason for making a list, but please don't make lists of people without their consent for being on it! Not everybody wants to be found that way, and in some cases it can put people at risk.
