The more I explore the various Twitter alternatives, the more I realize that they're all horribly flawed. Threads is just an Instagram feature with inconclusive usership. Bluesky is an undermoderated Twitter clone with unclear motives, questionable "federation" aspirations, and dubious marketing. Nostr is messy and filled to the brim with toxic dudes.

The Fediverse does alright though. It's not a perfect place, but it's the only place where I don't have to compromise on my principles.
