I'm very new here. But I'm an old IT guy. The admins for Mastodon are in a tough place at the moment. They are trying to deal with a situation akin to five cruise liners turning up at a fishing village harbour demanding fuel and supplies.It's going to take time and a lot of work, mostly by unpaid volunteers.Be kind.If you can, help.But please don't stand on the quayside shouting demands. That just distracts them from their challenge and doesn't help anybody.

"Regard your good name as the richest jewel you can possibly be possessed of -- for credit is like fire; when once you have kindled it you may easily preserve it, but if you once extinguish it, you will find it an arduous task to rekindle it again. The way to a good reputation is to endeavor to be what you desire to appear."Socrates - Allegedly

@stux It seems to me that people have forgotten the principle of GIGO. Garbage In, Garbage Out.If is been trained with carefully curated data, then its in with a chance.If it's been reading Twitter, Facebook or watching YouTube... 😬

I think that Gary Lineker has a point. It's all about inflaming a nationalistic populist reaction to win an election. They'll worry about fixing the mess it creates later."Propaganda should be popular, not intellectually pleasing. It is not the task of propaganda to discover intellectual truths. Those are found in other circumstances, I find them when thinking at my desk, but not in the meeting hall."Joseph Goebbels - Speech on 9 January 1928 to an audience of party members
