@wdlindsy I believe the historical phrase is “love it or leave it”. Unfortunately, that mindset leaves out the option of “love it and fix it”.

@jwildeboer Einzelpersonen können für sich selbst entscheiden, ob sie sich Google aussetzen wollen und ggfs. relativ spontan wechseln.
Auch diese Menschen können es fragwürdig finden eine für „Data-Ownership“ ins Leben gerufene Infrastruktur auf Servern laufen zu lassen, die diesen Idealen widersprechen. #FalseDichotomy

@juergen_hubert @Gargron The only two design choices available aren’t “funnel everyone to mastodon.social” or “present a list of thousands of servers.” The default button could automatically round-robin a large list of servers that are known to be run by good actors. This is a solved problem. The solution is not being used, in this case, because, clearly, mastodon.social does want to grow.

@codewiz @JackMeinoff @John "The right word is proxied, not jailed." <= #falseDichotomy. It's both a proxy & a jail. "You're not forced" <= users *are* forced (you didn't reply to a KDE admin, you replied to a user) "economically unfeasible" <= this excuse flies in the face of ~85% of web admins who have figured out how to operate w/out #CloudFlare.
