    Guess, and be confused, no more. I put together exactly what you need to see in order to understand what these people did, and why their instance is being silenced.

    Neutrality, the biggest problem with large Mastodon instances.

      @daemon_nova

      I want to know what is "FOSS".

      It's a thing apparently, like "tech"?

        Great question @Edelruth . FOSS is an acronym for "Free and Open Source Software" -- sometimes written as F/LOSS for "Free/Libre and Open Source Software"

        And excellent post @daemon_nova, thank you for taking the time to write it out so clearly!
