I'm a law prof, a philosopher, a progressive. I've deactivated <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/twitter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>twitter</span></a> and am searching for a new place to learn and to think out loud. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>politics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>law</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/democracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>democracy</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/elections" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elections</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>art</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/literature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>literature</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/history" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>history</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a></p>
stux⚡<p>Most of us do not like so-called 'spam accounts'.</p><p>Many instances within the <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fediverse</span></a> have rules about automated bot accounts, for example; on mstdn.social we only allow news / media bots that post 'unlisted' meaning not on the 'Public' timelines that bother every user. </p><p>Unlike <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Twitter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Twitter</span></a>, we keep an close eye on spam accounts and remove them so we keep the community for humans! </p><p>If you do wanna post something but not to the world please checkout the screenshot below for the options we offer!</p>
stux⚡<p>Another (big) difference with <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Twitter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Twitter</span></a> (and many other mainstream social platforms) is that on the <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fediverse</span></a> it's not a numbers game.</p><p>In short: constantly showing the number of boosts, favourites, replies, etc is having an effect on the mind. </p><p>We do not care about numbers but rather the content of a post / user :blobcathearts: </p><p>Quality over quanity!</p><p>Below you find an example of the web interface, on the timeline it does NOT show the counts but only on the post itself.</p>
stux⚡<p><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mastodon</span></a> is kinda the open source alternative for <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Twitter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Twitter</span></a> but there's more!</p><p>For almost all 'mainstream' (social) platform there are FOSS (free open source software) alternatives you can host yourself!</p><p>Here are some you should checkout:</p><p>Pixelfed (Insta alt): <a href="https://pixelfed.org" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">pixelfed.org</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br>PeerTube (YT alt): <a href="https://joinpeertube.org" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">joinpeertube.org</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br>Matrix (Chat): <a href="https://matrix.org/docs/projects/server/synapse" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">matrix.org/docs/projects/serve</span><span class="invisible">r/synapse</span></a><br>Pleroma: <a href="https://pleroma.social" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">pleroma.social</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br>Misskey: <a href="https://join.misskey.page/en-US" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">join.misskey.page/en-US</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br>WriteFreely : <a href="https://writefreely.org" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">writefreely.org</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
