There’s a buzzin’ in my brain I really can’t explain; I think about it before they make me go to bed. (he/him/his)

  • I hope that this doesn’t lead to fracturing the way it apparently did on Mastodon, where every instance that federated with a set of known-bad instances was itself added to the list of “known-bad” instances that the main instances ought to de-federate from (or maybe it will have to be that way to keep out the trolls); to put it another way, I hope that whichever side ends up being the more useful one in this split (beehaw.org or lemmy.world & sh.itjust.works) is the one that midwest.social gets to keep federating with, if it comes to that, or else I’ll need to bother joining beehaw or sh.itjust.works directly.


    (I forget whether I had to go through an involved process to register on midwest.social, but I know it’s not one of the instances with open registration.)

    I joined a while back (after the rise of Mastodon following some edgelord’s purchase of Twitter, although I had heard about both that and Lemmy long before), and I still probably won’t be active on Lemmy until Reddit dies off; I joined this instance because it’s the most relevant (nothing akin to Mathstodon, where I have the same username) and I was advised against just flocking to the main one.

    I was most active on /r/learnmath and /r/Buttcoin and I might go to refugee communities related to both, and to things like /r/learnjavascript (where I was active until a few years ago, also as an answerer of questions) and /r/badmathematics.
