toot.cat is one of the many independent Mastodon servers you can use to participate in the fediverse.
On the internet, everyone knows you're a cat — and that's totally okay.

so bluesky has gone from "look, he just didn't violate TOS" about Singal, to "actually he has a direct, low-latency line to our trust and safety team, and we are implementing specific protections catered to his needs that don't apply to anyone else"

see also: his address, and ONLY his address, is banned on the site lol

Say what you will about mastodon: the UX sucks, the community largely treats PoC and esp Black folks horribly, the moderation tools suck…

…but at least I can pick up my things and go to a different server if my admins decide to be terrible. The experience sucks, but I can always find another instance that will give me access to the network at large and let me connect with folks I want to talk to. I don’t have to leave the entire fedi just because my one instance is trash. (Note: this is a separate issue from the community as a whole acting like trash towards you to the point where no amount of moving around will actually help)

I’m still checking out bsky because it got all the artists and a few friends who never came over here but honestly my enthusiasm for it is pretty damn low now. They let a Nazi in the bar

@zkat His what now? I completely missed that about his address, it's fucking wild that they all of a sudden care about doxxing now, good grief.

@zkat @stufromoz but I thought that off-site non-identifying images were perfectly fine with BS Safety.

@zkat Bluesky T&S is acting as though we're already in 2030 when it might be possible to just "exit" their version of the stack and it's like... not even close lolsob

@zkat you just need to block them.

@zkat bluesky was founded by a nazi. of course he let's Nazis in.

@zkat I was here first, went there because most of the people I missed from the dead birdsite did, and the Transphobia & Sellouts team have only gone and proved my initial cynicism right.
