@qyliss That said, private posts have a weird interaction with federation right now, which limits essentially all non-mastodon.social instances. It's something that will change, but is worth considering right now.

@qyliss Privacy, safety, and a constant rollout of untested features are my biggest complaints with twitter, so awoo.space's approach fits my needs more than mastodon.social does. Other people feel differently, and that's totally valid!

@qyliss Finally, mastodon.social is pretty much constantly updated, and since there isn't a staging server, many changes are tested live. awoo.space updates periodically, so it lags on updates but also tends to be more stable as a result.

@qyliss Similarly, awoo.space is intentionally and proactively moderated in a way that mastodon.social is not. You can find information about that here: awoo.space/about/more

@qyliss A few things! Awoo.space has a different federation policy; while mastodon.social has a blacklist approach (federate by default, blacklist known bad actors), awoo.space has a whitelist of instances it federates to. The intent is to focus on safety and privacy first and foremost.

Omg my records are in the city and with Auspost!! They'll probably be delivered soon!

@ThatDamnCat I have a pretty diverse set of followers on Twitter, and not all those circles overlap. Community in-jokes aren't mutually comprehensible to my whole sphere over there!

How many of my followers even get the "owo" joke anyway

Probably a higher proportion here than on twitter, huh

@soft_chomps@mastodon.social i wish everyone used some keyword I could mute

@soft_chomps@mastodon.social or at least a lot to ignore, lolsob

@soft_chomps@mastodon.social it's really a lot to keep on top of

@ticky Hmm, yeah. Not sure. It might be only available from the "remote follow" UI, rather than via the search bar?

@ticky It wouldn't block you, to my understanding of how federation works; your awoos would be delivered to anyone who follows you, and you would receive mentions from anyone who follows you.

Awoo Space

Awoo.space is a Mastodon instance where members can rely on a team of moderators to help resolve conflict, and limits federation with other instances using a specific access list to minimize abuse.
