@supernovae
you do a good job at moderating and running your instance. the fact that we haven't had to send you any reports is good proof of that. I'm sorry I didn't @ mention you, I probably should have brought you in sooner
what I'm disappointed about is that you are going to federate with Facebook in spite of the raw danger it poses to the fediverse. I'm disappointed that you wanted to remove the federated reporting because it's such a valuable tool for keeping this a clean space where we can all feel comfortable
I sincerely doubt you have ever experienced discrimination based on your gender or race and I'm disappointed that you aren't listening to us who have. Facebook and corporate social media made a place where I felt unsafe and I've been given no assurance that that won't happen with their new project. I don't think we should give Facebook any benefit of the doubt, and I think I speak for a lot of people here when I say that.
as the admin of a large instance, there should be a large level of transparency and input from users in a decision as important as federating with Facebook. I think you and especially @stux should run polls to see if your users really want to federate with Facebook
@ivy @supernovae@universeodon.com Huh! Wow!
This is kinda weird A few min ago i was thinking about putting out a poll today, to see what people around the fedi want
Keep in mind that polls on Masto are not super reliable but i think it does give a bit of a picutre in the general sense
@ivy @supernovae@universeodon.com I'll put one out within a min okay? Let's see what the people want
@stux @supernovae thank you
if you want a a good outline for a poll, here is the one I ran for my instance https://cutie.city/@ivy/110571539450690527
the reason why I'm disappointed in you two is that I hold you in high regard. it hurts more when someone you look up does something you feel bad about
@ivy @supernovae@universeodon.com 28 votes is not super much
Just put out this one: https://mstdn.social/@stux/110622583732793662
@stux @supernovae that was all of my users at the time
it's a pretty small instance
@ivy @supernovae@universeodon.com no worries
we cant do local only so it will be all the fedi.. aka not super reliable
@stux @supernovae fair enough, I do think it would be better to do ranked choices and a no opinion just to give people more wiggle room to think about it
@stux @supernovae you could throw in a "I'm on another instance" option to see results
