I think the term is hikikomori, and the cause is COVID isolation.

Work is a fuck, but you gotta eat.
And the shared suffering builds camaraderie with your coworkers and some may develop into friends, which can provide meaning and excitement.
People who glorify hustle culture are fucked up. Don't listen to them.
I see you've employed the "I am rubber you are glue" tactic. Great job 👍
What an absolutely braindead reply.
Mastodon had a bad experience for that person.
Blue sky didn't.
Their experience wasn't unique.
End of story.
You're doing mental gymnastics to misinterpret their argument. Nobody said they want centralized social media you absolute lemon. They want a user experience that doesn't suck. Right now, blue sky provides that while mastodon doesn't.
"Oh but bsky's federation doesn't solve Mastodon's problem" they don't have to solve Mastodon's problem.
Elitist neckbeards like you are the reason the fediverse isn't fun.
Toxic people can be blocked by your instance, or you can move to an instance that doesn't tolerate that behavior
Omg DOUBLE PEEN
Lol peen
See this is part of the problem.
Dude was like "look at this objectively terrible experience I actually had"
And you are like "yeah well that could happen to bsky in theory too, so they're just as bad!"
I've been a mastodon user for almost 2 years, but I never use it because finding interesting people to subscribe to who are actually active is difficult.
I haven't been using bsky because I've really been hoping mastodon takes off, but whenever I hear about how easy it is to onboard and find interesting content, I think about switching.
That doesn't remove the toxic mod.
How many alts and sock puppets do you think the average person should have? This doesn't sound healthy
We already have the same problem here. Some of our major communities have belligerent mods on problematic instances.
We're not solving that problem, we're just making it easier to hide from it via defederation.
If federation works the way it's claimed to, then if we migrate even the bad parts of reddit here it should be fine.
Lemmy is turning into an elitist cesspool.
Yes, both for this and future weekends
