A non-zero part of Mastodon’s user community has effectively modeled itself on a kind of social Puritanism that is super unfun to be around. It’s gotten so bad that it’s a meme at this point. Just imagine a stereotype of a stodgy librarian who tells you to CW your own lived experiences because they don’t want to see it, and you’re already halfway there.

There’s this wild idea that any kind of commerce or barter, any kind of exhange between hands that isn’t the most threadbare mutual aid, is forbidden and bad and going to make this place worse somehow. We’re a network predicated on GoFundMe’s and vast amounts of unpaid labor for hosting and moderation.
