@noodlejetski @qooqie https://erinkissane.com/mastodon-is-easy-and-fun-except-when-it-isnt I read article and can say I understand many problems listed there. If you join Biggest instance then sure you won’t encounter some of the listed problems, but federation isn’t about joining biggest. Not intuitive UI also big factor, why greeting message don’t tell Use #Hello #Привет or other language for first message? People don’t understand/know about search being specific to # add to that bombardment with tips… Fediverse is bad for newcomer.
It’s not an insult but a way to show frustration without hurling insults.
So here in Russian like
ЁКЛМНЭ
ЁПРСТ
Ёшкин кот
Блин (pancake) to not use Блядь (whore)
Мать твою за ногу
Пиздец
Ппц
hmm that’s all that comes to mind unless going into really insulting words.
In romanian I know only “Du-te in pula” “Du-te in pula mea” which is Get Fucked, fuck off.
