@confusedcharlot i suspect the problem is how bogged down mastodon.social is right now - if more people from there moved to other instances in the fediverse the problem might start going away
@typhlosion i'm not knowledgeable enough to know what's really going on, but it feels like something broke under heavy load that has yet to be fixed
@typhlosion i'm just whining because very important ppl :tm: have already declared masto dead.
i just want to stay and be gay with all my animal friends.
@confusedcharlot just cos a bunch of self-important randos declare a thing dead doesn't mean you can't keep using it :3
