A conversation about platforms bringing people together, respect for diversity (also of opinion and culture) and enshittified walled gardens, between @ke5arin@mastodon.social and @andypiper@macaw.social with obligatory mention of @pluralistic@mamot.fr. 40 minutes well spent.

    I only ever check my corporate social media now because I get DM’s for various business-related things.

    The Fediverse, for me, has been the best experience. Most people are willing to have good-faith conversations. Those who don’t are easily blocked, and if they break the rules, moderators are on hand to make sure they go kaput.

    Also, for the low low price of donating $10 a month (along with other subscribers) I get zero ads and no algorithm fuckery messing up my experience.

    Can’t say that about any of the corporate media services.
