alt Hacker NewsI’m obviously talking about the main Mastodon instance and its Trending view [0]. The main instance has cultural prestige for the other instances that form the fediverse as people here normally define it and is regarded as exemplifying its values. But we’ve seen you disingenuously try to downplay issues here with the fediverse before.
You know there are tens of thousands of instances yet you chose to use language that implied that you were speaking about "Mastodon" as a whole, and then you chose to make judgements about fediverse users as a whole, based on a description of a single post on a single instance some unknown number of years ago. That is at best disingenuous, and at worse intentionally deceptive.

Who is "we?" Jumping immediately into the defensive and accusatory personal attack? I don't know what caused you to harbor this sort of grudge against the fediverse and people who use it but get over it. Just let people have their space, and find your own.
