Hello all! In the interest of finding out how the Fedi skews, I want to run another age poll. Please pick the decade that you fall in (there are two polls; if you don't belong in the first, you may belong in the second).

Boosts welcome and encouraged!

Age poll pt. 2! Again, this may not apply to you (refer to previous toot if it doesn't).

between the two polls we're at roughly 1500 people, so, uh, what instance should I move to after I kill this account?

(mostly kidding. mostly...)

@hafnia well obviously i’d prefer you stay here :)

But if I ever jump ship it’ll be to a server running the hometown fork tbh (prob either rage.love or weirder.earth)

@Satsuma the experience yesterday with instances that should have been blocked by the admins made me really think about moving, honestly. Like...a lot of the "bad replies" and DMs were from instances that have already been blocked by more proactive admins :(

@hafnia @Satsuma So FYI there are tools you can use to block instances on an account level. Might be worth considering.

(not a substitute for proper moderation, but it does help)

@Doephin I'm very aware (see note in my pinned notes about instances I have silenced) -- my issue was that some of these are ones that literally hadn't come across my radar before but which are apparently mentioned on the Fediblock list, something that the admins have said they pay attention to (but which they're slow to update for, which makes sense considering the moderation tools are "eh") @Satsuma
