Remember you are in control, you have the power. If you’re unhappy with your instance, move instance. If you’re unhappy with another instance, go outside and come back once you’ve calmed down. Especially in regards to the threadiverse, we’re better together, even when we’re apart.
The fediverse is better off if all the users and content isn’t concentrated in one instance anyway.
Say it again for the people in the back
Outrage is good.
When I am outraged I am the victim. The victim always dominates.
When I am outraged I always have something relevant to say.
I signal my solidarity with the other outraged people
Outrage makes me warm and happy.
This comment outraged me,… what fulfillment

raises hand I really don’t know how any of this works.
Defederating, at its most simple, means when you’re browsing one instance (let’s call them the defederat-or) content and conversation from the instance that they defederated from (the defederat-ee) can no longer appear on the defederat-or’s instance. If someone from the defederate-ee comments on a post shared over in their instance, the users of each instance do not see each other.
None of this stops you from browsing the defederat-ee’s instance either with a login on their instance or as a lurker. You have the ability to see and engage with that instance virtually as you see fit. While not everyone is like this, generally the people who understand this and are still mad about it are just free speech warriors who don’t want to ever feel like anyone is ever telling them what to say.
And then this is the next post under this
No, no. That’s clearly not a small thing. Burn down whole buildings over that.
YOU”RE NOT GOING TO ACT OUTRAGED OVER SMALL THINGS
“Outrage by default” is an extremely bad trait that I hope reddit refugees (like myself) don’t make common. It’s exhausting, unhealthy, and rarely helpful.
Someone in another thread made a simple but profound point: not every conversation needs to become a debate.
Is it Threadiverse or Fediverse? I’d rather it be Fediverse to keep it from being confused with Meta’s Threads.
Threadiverse is long form, basically Lemmy, Kbin, Frendica and Writely. Fediverse is them plus Mastodon and FireFish
