@milkman76 @majorlinux The problem is that you cannot see everything that's posted on other instances. Here on my instance, I don't see a lot of stuff. However, on the mastodon.social instance, I can see much more. It's in between that kind of fragmentation that racists hide. They also send others private @'s which no one else can see.

Find a black person here who speaks out about anti-black racism on the regular, check out their replies on their own server instead of your instance. It's there.

@milkman76 @majorlinux Had a bunch of my friends try Mastodon. Many of them found it confusing, and just left. I tried my best to explain it and even wrote tutorials. Only a handful stayed.

Then others were run off because of anti-black racism. (A lot of Instances are just terrible. In my quest to find a home, I saw so many places using slurs. Hard R too.)

I've accepted that I'll be here and on Bluesky. That's okay, I don't believe in using a single social media platform.
