@anders as an operator of a single-user instance, I assume complete responsibility & control over the content that I see & interact with.I realize that #SelfHosting isn’t within everyone’s reach but I do think people should play a more active role in curating their feed & de-platforming offensive content, instead of expecting a nebulous ‘someone’ to do it for them, and complaining when that someone doesn’t do it to their liking. Especially when those folks are volunteers.

@clive @breadandcircuses Same. I’m currently sitting at around 1.7k. I was up over 2000 at one point but had to scale back in order to lessen the media storage burden on my instance.One cool thing I found was under Mastodon’s settings, one can go view ‘Follows and followers’ and sort by ‘dormant’ or ‘last active’ and use that as a way to unfollow accounts that haven’t posted for a while. I currently run at about a 90-day cutoff.

@grammargirl @clive @breadandcircuses I run a self-hosted instance through the masto.host service. I started out with the most basic tier but quickly found myself exceeding the media storage quota and moved to the second tier, which I came close to exceeding as well until I scaled back the number of accounts I followed. This page from the masto.host FAQ explains it:https://masto.host/re-mastodon-media-storage/

@StillIRise1963 Sadly, in many cases they’re not wrong. As someone who worked a career in customer service I’m constantly aghast at how companies now treat their customers with such contempt and yet appear to suffer no ill effects from it.#enshittification

“According to the map created December 8, more than 72 per cent of the country was experiencing moderate to exceptional drought conditions as of Nov. 30. This includes 81 per cent of the country's agricultural landscape used to feed millions of people and animals.”#ClimateChange #CanPolihttps://www.ctvnews.ca/climate-and-environment/more-than-70-of-canada-is-abnormally-dry-here-s-why-1.6707873

@505fred @gemelliz The fact that #Poilievre refuses to denounce the group whose leader threatened to sexually assault his wife really speaks to the man’s character:https://www.thestar.com/politics/federal/rcmp-investigating-rape-threats-made-by-far-right-figure-about-pierre-poilievre-s-wife/article_ff3db8fa-b194-5e41-93b9-31fcd4b7b346.html

@futurebird And here we worried about AI creating /convincing/ deepfakes. Clearly, we set the bar way too high. 🤦♂️

@davidzipper The study actually found:“A desire for a loud car with a modified muffler is predicted by being a man and higher scores on psychopathy and sadism”Psychotic means something totally different.#Psychology

@futurebird Absolutely. Learning how to code has taught me to think logically, how to solve problems sequentially, and to clearly define a problem when attempting to implement a solution. All were skills that proved invaluable in my management career.

@spaceflightIf I were Butch or Suni I don’t think I’d be super confident about stepping to that vehicle for reentry. #Starliner
