Nah just the usual issue of nerds having a pathological need to look down on anything that doesn’t meet their arbitrary standards for niche technologies. Same with people scoffing at someone who uses too “mainstream” of a Linux distro like Ubuntu or Mint rather than Arch or whatever.

I’ve heard people trashing mastodon before, is there like a reason people don’t like it? I haven’t spent much time on it myself.

There are possibly multiple reasons
-
It’s bad because it’s popular
-
It’s bad because of features
-
It’s bad because the users

The people on Mastadon are why I chose not to stay there. If you don’t know and adhere to the “expected behaviour” there you’re the devil and a million people with furry avatars will surely let you know.

Can you provide an example of this “expected behaviour”?

Being self righteous and compete with others for who is the most morally superior. Being against any sort of algos that make interesting content. Being against trying to grow the fedi as it’s “growth mindset”. Against having your feed not being political and activist content that gets exhausting. Being an out of touch old white collar worker who has zero money issues they actually have to deal with

Sure. Agree with everything everyone says otherwise you’re a bigot/nazi/right wing homophobe.

Yeah… sorry if I am very skeptical of your criticism…
99% of the time anyone says what you say… there’s a reason for it.
