How the fuck can Swatting be such a common thing in America. I have never heard about it in any other country.

A lot of people use Mastodon as an RSS feed where they can leave comments. This would basically allow you to subscribe to the content of a writer, and get it full-form straight in your feed.
I could also imagine following artists on Pixelfed, throwing money in their tip jar to keep posted on their newest creations.
I think there’s a lot of potential here. But monetisation is always tricky on the internet, of course.
Yeah, the pitchfork crowd manages to shut down everyone who tries to do something genuinely good for the community, while leaving all the bad actors running wild in the background.
I mean, we always knew loud voices in the open source community were toxic as fuck - that’s obvious enough from the Linux mailing list. Giving these people their own social network to ruin was wildly optimistic from the beginning. It’s a wonder it hasn’t gone worse.

Also, Bridgy.fed rules. Anyone out there on Mastodon or Bluesky: Please opt in! :)
No wonder Russians can’t afford bread any more — it’s all being bought up by American weirdos.
