@tilvids@mstdn.social Was already clear that they won't be holding an instance for building an understanding environment, but another boasting outlet. First of all, @mozilla@mozilla.social doesn't even have ANYTHING to boast about, because they've ruined everything there was to ruin.

I certainly don't mind if they skip PLvsAA, since it's so non-canon and gathering an interorganizational team now seems a bit late. Surely, people aren't going to wait untill all previous Layton games and Ace Attorney crossover get ported, to experience AA7.

I gave #Kbin another try, took a less popular instance without Cloudflare, create a magazine with appropriate tags in settings.

When I go and make a post on Mastodon with one of those tags AND even mention the group where magazine resides (just in case), but nothing makes the post appear on Kbin.

You can imagine my disappointment, as I promoted the shit out of Kbin prematurely and how it's suppoed to fetch remote posts - NOPE, doesn't work. πŸ€” πŸ˜”

@thibaultamartin has mentioned that they are working on a better instance picker for #Matrix.

Meanwhile, the choice is but a bunch of curated lists and arbitrary metrics from which you infer if the server is worth going with or not: rules in place, general international hosting, registration through in-house Element or SSO, latest version of software, and (most importantly) sustainability.

If you know that admin can hang on until you're able to donate yourself, it's a world of difference from those "lolicon servers" because host takes it seriously.

@shinnoodles So, here's my personal favorite: https://techhub.social/@vintprox/109432716734526087
There is even a table explaining why I chose this particular instance for our group.
