To be fair I like the idea of decentralization which you might know why, which is why I started trying out Matrix, though I have heard the situation on the fediverse culturally is a bit different from what I have seen

I know Bluesky is decentralized though, but if atproto is under this leadership it leaves me worried, but maybe i should try fediverse soon, but you could give your experience so far

the fedi is culturally different, but so far i'd say i've had a good time. i'd say it's very much more small. like on atproto, the closest thing to an instance usually tries to index the entire damn network, so you can see everyone. it seems that's not much of a thing on the fediverse.

like i'm on merping.synth.download. it's a small instance, and while i *can* follow anyone on the fediverse, the instance isn't aware of everyone, and other instances by default don't know i exist. so people can only really find me via reposts, and the trending page is sometimes just a single post of a guy's dog. i thought it would be limiting, but it's kinda more cozy to me i feel ...

I see, i personally prefer smaller communities anyways since i tend to find the content i'd find interesting and big ones are just overstimulating and shallow imo, though none of my friends I have on discord and stuff use it unfortunately, but i could give it a shot one day
my neocities uploader tool attempts to delete the file, which of course doesn't work, because it's an invalid file name. weird!
