<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@kev" class="u-url mention">@<span>kev</span></a></span> ah this sucks, but also isn&#39;t a particularly shocking outcome. Hope you both got, and understood, my rambling message the other day, and hope you&#39;re otherwise well. Some of us do appreciate the work you&#39;ve all put in here!</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@kev" class="u-url mention">@<span>kev</span></a></span> Thanks for the statement and all the hard work for <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/fosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>fosstodon</span></a>! I really appreciate it.</p><p>And I feel sorry that it hasnt been fun for a long time. Take care and all the best in the future.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@kev" class="u-url mention">@<span>kev</span></a></span> <br />I&#39;m so sorry to hear this. I&#39;m just a casual user and honestly had no idea any of this was going on. After learning more about it, I can understand why you&#39;ve decided to call it quits.</p><p>My personal experience on Fosstodon has been nothing but positive, and I&#39;m grateful for all you and <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@mike" class="u-url mention">@<span>mike</span></a></span> have done and continue to do.</p><p>Best of luck in your future endeavors.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@kev" class="u-url mention">@<span>kev</span></a></span> so long and thanks for all the fish. Oh wait, that&#39;s what you say. Anyway, thanks and good luck. I&#39;ve subscribed to your blog.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@kev" class="u-url mention">@<span>kev</span></a></span> I could agree more:</p><p>“the fact is, it isn&#39;t. It&#39;s just like everywhere else online - the vocal minority are just as loud, and just as obnoxious as everywhere else.”</p><p>I too have thought long and hard about steeping away from the Fedi for just these reasons. Wishing you all the best, with whatever decision you make.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@kev" class="u-url mention">@<span>kev</span></a></span> Thank you very much for your statement. We want to assure you that it is in fact a vocal minority and we&#39;re really sad that the Fedi seems to be no different than X in situations like this.</p><p>Furthermore, we want to thank you for taking your time for a response. That is important for you personally. We know that it might not be as fast as others liked it. But we&#39;re all doing this shit for free.</p><p>We hope that this is not the end of Fosstodon. Thanks again for all you&#39;ve put into this.</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@kev" class="u-url mention">@<span>kev</span></a></span> This is sad but understandable. Thanks for your work and effort.</p>

<p>My opinion of the <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/fosstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>fosstodon</span></a> drama:</p><p>It&#39;s fair to expect mods to be on the right side of history, and not to have heinous views. And it&#39;s fair to call this out. At the same time, this server is run by VOLUNTEERS. The needless attacks, the immediate moves and blocks, and the insane expectation for <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@mike" class="u-url mention">@<span>mike</span></a></span> and <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@kev" class="u-url mention">@<span>kev</span></a></span> to constantly be on top of this and aware of about 500 threads of toots at the same time (and on different platforms) is SO TOXIC. Yall need to CHILL. Everyone is just doing their best.</p>
