Sorry to hear that the federation has lost you to blusky.

I was never a huge fan of the idea of a federated internet but after engaging for it the past couple of years, I absolutely fucking hate it. Federation didn't lose me to Bsky so much as hurl me as fast as humanly possible.

Keep in mind this point of view is framed especially by multiple personal experiences of extremely petty, vindictive and pathetic admins of other instances who went FUCKING INSANE trying to purge me from the federation, as well as a handful of trolls that abused certain instances lack of admin to harass me or other mods. Then there's how active I am in talking to admins of multiple other instances of lemmy and of Mastodon and hearing the shit they put up with and the shit they do...

I haven't had the best of experiences.

Glad to hear you at least gave mastodon a try. There are some friendlier parts than that out there on the fediverse but if you're enjoying bsky so be it. Maybe we'll meet again some day after it eventually either implodes or federates.
