I have a #Fediverse article coming out tomorrow that I'm really not going to enjoy publishing. I think a lot of people are going to hate it, get nasty about it, and probably make the usual boring claims of how I'm spouting bullshit.
I feel as though part of Mastodon's user culture has enabled harassment, doxxing, death threats, and a litany of other horrible shit.

It's not the progressive welcoming circle of friendship that it looks like. It's kind of a fucking vanity cult, actually.
