People aggressively calling everyone dumb for not joining the Fediverse, and pissing on all their misunderstandings is effectively punching down with zero insight.

I have coaxed people into technology usage and simple procedures my whole life. They are literally frightened animals.

Think about the plight of koalas trying to survive in the modern world. For a koala, life with humans is hard for all the stupidest of reasons. But, that's exactly our fault, and not the koalas. It doesn't matter how illogical and useless the koala is because we have to own this. A koala isn't evolved to meet cows, dogs, fences, cars, empty fields, weird trees, ....

Back on topic - as an example - we have a favourite button, but shun its use. Why have it ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Being über right and entirely smug about it doesn't play well like you're imagining it does. People transition away from difficult spaces in various processes of escape. Passive aggressively telling people they're too stupid to join the Fediverse is not even close to having a welcoming doormat. You're even better off trying to be ironic with that shit!

The fine @michael has deployed the #FediAlgo demo app to a place where you can test out the customizable algorithm + filtering system for your home timeline with nothing more than a web browser. You can find it here:
