The test that determines if one is unfit or not is reproduction. Nature is taking its course. If you have the power to personally castrate them then do it, otherwise you better get to having children.
Same here. I continued and I was like, nah, as passionately as I feel, I will just bow out. TBH, I hate debating, and maybe part of it is because I have a nasty temper. It isn’t that I’m incompetent in debating, though I probably am, but more because I fear what I can say or do. And if I come across as bigoted, and yeah, I should work on it, I see it as rather honestly earned in my case. I could give you many stories of what certain folks have said, done, etc., toward me. I just wish I could live in a place with mostly self-educated intelligent people and mostly conservative values. I imagine more feel like me and that most are afraid to let that be known or have given up and don’t know where to look in finding like-minded people. I don’t think our userbase is necessarily like-minded per se. I’ve already muted one. I don’t think others’ “echo chamber” accusation is fair since I don’t see that. But still, it is a healthier online culture than many places, and I appreciate you and others in the Fediverse working toward that much.
Thanks! I know nothing about hosting servers. It is something that does sound interesting to me and I wouldn’t mind learning.
And by like-minded, I wasn’t meaning in reference to me, but to each other. We don’t have a cohesive userbase, but we do seem to have a healthy culture. So I meant that part as a compliment.
As for me, I wouldn’t have any better luck in finding users who think like me, even if I ran my own instance. That is just reality.
8$ for a domain for the first year (17$ a year after that for a .com). 12$ a month for a little 2gb of ram server over at dreamhost.
Need access to either a linux computer, mac computer, or windows computer with windows linux subsystem (windows 10 or 11) with ssh installed.
The rest is running a simple script that auto sets it up for you. Dream host automatically opens the ports for you. It’s pretty simple and I can walk you through it if you ever want to.
Thanks. Well, I prefer Windows 7, and if ReactOS was stable and complete enough, I’d use that. I don’t know if I’d have compatibility. That’s why I use the Java version of Minecraft and not the “Windows” version, for instance.

Thank you for your input. I’m bowing out.
I appreciate the candid responses. Its been on my mind lately. I apologize if I come off over zelous.

Fediverse is dope. You would be a good admin. Should run your own instance. Lemmy or Mastodon.
