mastodon.art has decided to suspend firefish.social from their instance due to issues with its administrator. The administrator of firefish.social was found to be boosting posts from a known harasser on another instance. mastodon.art takes a firm stance against racism and suspending full instances in these situations is part of their policy as a safe space. The known harasser has a history of using slurs, harassment, and editing screenshots to spread misinformation. However, the administrator of firefish.social has now forged a screenshot to paint mastodon.art in a negative light.

calckey dev

Is it that person whose name starts with a K? That fellow blocked my server when I had innocently mentioned that the Fedi software I use also has all the features that they're talking about. Of course, after spewing a whole gamut expletives and abusive words. Certainly didn't miss out on anything.

If I were a user of that server, I would run away - AVOID servers where the admins can't maintain their cool, remain calm and collected and take things personally - think of how they would react if you say something against a decision they make.

Ya that's him. I think this might be a limitation of the fact theyre legit a 20 y/o in college. I'm revealing my biases but a lot of people I know really didn't level out emotionally until their mid to late 20s, myself included.

Yeah 20 something - "Sophomore at some Uni".

Don't be so hard on yourself. I didn't level out emotionally until 35. Many people at 40.
