So peculiar, my experience on nostr is exactly what I make it, I follow people that I like to engage with and I dont really get upset looking at my feed. Is that not the way it works at mastadon? Do these people hunt for outrage?
If so, the expression goes "the internet remains undefeated". Whats the point of doing all this blocking if people can just create a new account? Theyll go to a new server, theyll refresh their own server under a new name/IP. All you can really do is spread fear and sow discontent, you cant *win*, you are signing up for a never ending war against people you never had to pay attention too in the first place. If you are willing to venture out into the internet, be prepared with a thick skin and understand people say a lot of bad things, if you can find someone you like then take them back with you dont try to sit in the middle and tell everyone else how to act when you cant even control yourself.
Since the lockdowns of 2020 I really have found myself enraptured by warhammer 40k, its cathartic in a sense, its like these ideas taken to their logical conclusion. The imperium of man is fighting against chaos, chaos feeds on negative emotion, so naturally these immortal space marines embark on millennia long missions to enslave mankind and fight endless wars to make sure no one ever thinks bad thoughts, a somewhat counterproductive approach compared to trying to manage the chaos of your own life...
