    The problem is Mastodon’s shittiness will be spread across the Fediverse regardless of what other forks you make.

    If I were to make a new platform, I would not federate with any Mastodon servers.

    It’s bad enough when they come around here.

      What’s wrong with just blocking/defederating from what you don’t want to see in your feed?

          Only if you federate with those instances. You could defed from them, and Mastodon could make up 0% of your Fediverse.

      Making a good point for Bluesky’s rejection of sharing AP federation, incidentally.
