I think you can sign up to public instances

Exactly, the onboarding experience needs to be super sleek and straightforward, you’ll be surprised to know how many creators don’t know how to configure their stuff, they usually ask their friends

Oh, that’s really bad, they should honor your delete requests, I think Matrix is much better in that regard…

I can’t answer for OP, but for me personally, I like to delete my old stupid takes, and other than that, sometimes you have to share some personal info ( describe yourself, where you’re coming from… etc ) for the sake of having a healthy discussion, that could accumulate and leads to exposing your real identity to… say an employer

Friend, a lot has happened from 1988, leadership changed, governments overthrown and/or overtaken, plots twisted, laws have been rewritten and other introduced, I’m talking within those countries…

take Algeria for example they recently had their presidential election, their (S)elected president promised them that he’ll build 3 hospitals in Gaza in less than 20 days ( he never did, and will never do )

Morocco just like Algeria is having Secret deals with the Israeli government, such as buying their Pegasus spyware

It seems like these governments are just using Palestinian cause to stay in power, they don’t care

I’m not talking about recognition that’s written on a piece of paper, I’m talking about actions

You’ll be surprised by how many Arab countries, actually don’t recognize Palestine ( with their actions ) ( e.g. Egypt, Morocco, Algeria, Saudi Arabia… And the list goes on )

Imagine how weak your argument for God has to be if you’re going around censoring books

Not necessarily, it all depends on the software license, people don’t usually care about who funds their software, ( even if they’re funding it themselves with their data ), plus If we’re talking about selling points, saying that you can control your online presence is a much successful sell than saying it’s not VC funded, like I never used that argument when I try to convince my friends to hop on Mastodon

Edit: but I’m not saying it’s not a valid argument, it’s very valid

it is the MAIN selling point of the fediverse.

Debatable, I would say it’s the ability to selfhost and not be under the mercy of “the platform” or the admin’s subjective morals, you can also not federate and make the place your own

l freaking love that this thing exists, the summary feature is some next level genius

I’m so excited about the “private space” feature

like WWE wrestling ?!
