If you just have one account on one instance, you may not realize that Mastodon federation -- the means by which toots are sent from instance to instance -- is not instantaneous.

It may be seconds or minutes for a toot to traverse even directly connected instances. This depends on server load and how many messages are in the queue.

Toot lag. It's a thing.

The more you know! 💫

⚠️ Mastodon is not anti-Nazi, or anti-harassment. (Not even Mastodon.Social is very anti-harassment.) Anyone can run an instance, including Nazis. Including abusers. Including techbros who don't give a shit.

This is why your choice of instance matters. Know who your admin is. Check your blocklist. Check the code of conduct.

Not everyone cares about your safety, and no one is really required to.

Be kind. Be careful. Punch Nazis.

Seeing a couple popular twitter users join up here and say things like "Hopefully Mastodon is noticing these comments" and while they're helpful critiques, I wonder if they missed the memo that Mastodon is not a monolithic entity with a big switchboard.
