Egregoros

I cannot restate enough how underspecified and fragmented the fediverse ecosystem is if you try to actually do anything "cool" with it.

@sun i have some appreciation for the misskey approach of 'just put random shit in the object and let god sort it out'

@lain I felt a great sense of freedom working with Egregoros and not trying to ram everything through the mastodon-shaped pinhole anymore.

@sun @lain You can just ignore Mastodon. (Many don't understand this.)

@phnt @lain @sun there's easier ways to have no one to federate with

@i @lain @sun The two features I'm in the process of building into Pleroma are both incompatible with Mastodon, one will be a new FEP. Do you think I care that Mastodon users won't be able to take advantage of them? No, they can try to convince their emotionless CEO to support them. Not my problem.

@phnt @i @lain we have our own network, it's even smaller than mastodon. that prick just wants to build out mastodon, people give him more money so he can pay the hosting costs of dumping even more people just into mastodon.social I guess.

@sun @phnt @i @lain We are fully behind this as well. Have spoke with moon on several occasions and I support it whatever whether it be financially or dev or whatever. Was told not to talk about it but now that it's in the open, well

@graf @i @phnt @lain it's not really a formal statement at this point I'm just saying most of us just want to do our own thing and it's pretty clear the other people don't want most of us to help with the the other thing anyway

@sun @i @phnt @lain We still have the users, what's lacking is the fun. That's what the pleroma network needs.

@graf @i @lain @sun
>what's lacking is the fun. That's what the pleroma network needs.

This is a general statement on society as a whole. The fun on the Internet is mostly gone, reduced to ragebait and infighting.

@phnt @i @lain @sun 2021 and early 2022 poast reminded me of 2004-2006 4chan. Those users are still around. Most pissed off to xitter because Elon let's you say the bad word now but a lot of what I proposed to moon in calls would bring a lot of them back

@graf @i @phnt @lain @sun are we going through changes?!?!

@noyoushutthefuckupdad @i @phnt @lain @sun my friends band sometimes tours as bat sabbath and they played this once 3 or 4 years ago and it was the only time I heard the lead not screaming. great track

@graf @i @phnt @lain @sun are they as good as Mac Sabbath?

@noyoushutthefuckupdad @i @phnt @lain @sun unfortunately the only tracks of theirs recorded as bat sabbath are lives (probably dmca reasons) but they released an EP of covers recently as bat sabbath

here's a sample of their newest work https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICKx7VUqyKY

@graf @i @phnt @lain @sun I will listen after work.

@noyoushutthefuckupdad @i @phnt @lain @sun if you like that, listen to the entirety of Hail Destroyer followed by Bears, Mayors, Scraps and Bones and if you dig it I'll get you free tix in your area when they tour back here in the winter/early spring
