@fosstodon I was having a nice time sitting here, but sorry, you do not get to own my image.

Your new rules about "federated accounts"

hub.fosstodon.org/coc/#federat

turn *you* into co-owners of my image not just on , but everywhere. I never agreed to that, and now I'm threatened with a ban from my primary instance for experimenting with my own image elsewhere.

Sorry, I will not take that risk: I'm signing out.

I'll remain here until I find another instance or you remove the rule.

hub.fosstodon.orgCoC | Fosstodon HubGuidelines on how we expect our members to behave.

@dcz@fosstodon.org @fosstodon@fosstodon.org Never trust anyone who pushes for a CoC, it is almost always an attempt to control you.

@dcz@fosstodon.org @fosstodon@fosstodon.org Ironically, this new CoC rule goes against their own rules laid out earlier on that page.

If you would like to exercise your full free speech rights, you can do so somewhere else
Is there any way to see who tried to sneakily add in that CoC rule? Or do they conveniently not have any logs about such changes?

@phoebos@fosstodon.org Inserted in a commit that defends the use of #Cloudflare. Still a very sad attempt at exercising control which he shouldn't have.

Good thing there's logs, though. Now anyone with even the tiniest moral compass can point to it and tell that guy to stop being a controlfreak. Or just drop Fosstodon already, ofc, we don't need more mega instances.
