Not gonna lie, that's what put me off the fediverse for so long. I was like, "fine, I'll join mastodon or whatever". Then I had to choose my server and I didn't know what that meant and then when I tried creating my account, the server was full or something and I just freaked out and left 😂.

    I think the power users have ran into issues in the past and instead of considering the learning journey they went through, I think they say it's better to shortcut to their solution and forgetting the longer learning process they took to get to where they are.

    Sounds like DARVO.

    DARVO is an acronym that stands for Deny, Attack, and Reverse Victim and Offender. It describes a manipulative tactic often used by abusers to avoid taking responsibility for their actions and shift the blame onto their victims,

    Yeah but only enough to draw a salary. I don't see the need to defend overpricing, privacy violations, or every be product or bug or law breaking like my friends.

    I worked for investment banks and when they get caught for doing bad things, I usually say "good, we shouldn't be doing that".

    Sounds like you're living the real dream though 💪
