Right now this is unbearable for you but getting angry with your colleagues is just going to make it unbearable for everyone.

Spending your passion on your own projects or OSS will yield you better returns 9 times out of 10.

We are free to fart outside once more!!

Even in that case I believe it should be the user choice not the admin.

And communities should be instance independent the same way mailing list works.

I completely agree that you should have the choice to opt out of this toxic "content".

But I believe the issue that RC is talking about is that the control is in the hands of the admins instead of the individual in Mastodon.

It allows something like GMail admins blocking their users to send/receive messages from HotMail, and then your only solution would be to create a second account in some other provider that doesn't block HotMail.

Manufacture IPhones in US to sell in the US.

Manufacture IPhones in China to sell to the rest of the world.

I bet that whats Apple is going to do.

Polution and slave labour in China.

Unemployment in the US.

Globalism sounds great.

In history everytime a high wages became a problem it was solved through tecnology (mecanization/automation) or by adding more workers (slavery/immigration/outsourcing).

I don't see any reason todays America would be any different.
