Seriously though, fedi was *built* by furries, trans and queer folk, disabled neurodivergent people.

This is *the reason* the culture here is what it is. Why CWs are a thing. Why image descriptions are a thing. Why privacy matters here. Why moderation tools not only exist, but are usable — and used.

If you had joined and asked yourself "wow, how come this place is so chill and kinda… nice?" — that's thanks to all the nice people from communities some people call "weird".

So #KeepFediWeird.

Can't spell "fediverse" without "diverse", is all I'm saying.

#KeepFediWeird

Edit:

I posted this and the parent toot at the start of Nov'22 wave of new people and communities joining fedi, bringing their specific needs and expectations.

Fedi learned a lot about itself since then, including that it needs to *dramatically* improve on the #antiracism front.

We need to recognize that fedi *failed* #Black / #BIPOC folks, and do better.
