Its because they signed up for Twitter

Yeah I'm in BC

I'm glad you have a wife that is supportive.

I hear you about platonic friends. Its really hard to make friends as an adult. I'm in the same boat. My wife has friends because she's lived in this town for decades, but I'm an immigrant who's only been here since 2019 and 80% of the other people in our town drive pickup trucks and think vaccines kill people. The struggle is real. Whatever its worth I'm proud of you for putting yourself out there. I dont have the courage to try that so much myself.

I am so so so sorry that happened to you. That is so incredibly fucked up and not okay. The fact this happened at Pride is just...so heartbreaking. I am a cis-het male, but I inevitably cry tears of joy every year at our local Pride festival because there are so many people from across the entire LGBTQ2IAS+ community in our very conservative/religious city who get so much shit from judgmental bigots, every day of the year, but Pride is a time when they are not just accepted, but fucking CELEBRATED! Friend, if the hater who spewed those lies to you won't celebrate you, I sure as hell will. Such_lettuce7970, I dont know you IRL, but judging from your post history you use Linux, and youre here on the threadiverse, and you have seem to have a heart for sharing vulnerability with others which is such an incredible gift for all of us to be blessed by. You're a fucking cool-ass woman, and I hope you are able to find people IRL who are able to validate that about yourself. Sending a handful of soldarity tears and many, many loving vibes your way (and if you're cool with it, some WiFi hugs as well). Youre a fucking treasure, and your cats are lucky as shit to be able to hang out with you.

Does this include Crimea or just territory seized since 2022?

There's already a shared public commons - it's called ActivityPub, and they refuse to use it because it would impact the shareholder value of their private company. Bluesky is as full of shit as my constipated toddler.

Eugen is proof that the fediverse requires distributed (not just decentralized) ownership.

I'm curious what/if any info can be retrieved from Matrix servers?

I really hope that we'll be able to maintain a strong resistance and fortification against Meta taking over the fediverse.

Fuck, let's pray it is
