    I encourage everyone considering sending the invite to review OP’s comment history. I was about to share one but yikes.

      We may not all think alike or obtain the same Linux ISOs. I am okay with that and feel we all should be okay with differing opinions and viewpoints, especially in a secular society.

      I defended the comedian Dave Chapelle and questioned the term “toxic masculinity” in 2 posts which lead to a long (and apparently scrutinized) comment history.

        Based comment history. If I had any invites left I would have given it to you. I can’t stand people who stalk people’s comment history. It’s friggin stupid

          Thanks. We reached that dystopian part where people are judged based on their social credits and “likability” and conformance index to the masses.

          I expect to be held liable for people I invite to other people’s places, therefore I don’t invite randos or people that have proven to have little regard for others.

            Invitations and referrals do carry liability. However, I would say that if you have a differing opinion, others attack with little regard. The “mob mentality” is inert and affluent in social media. Then you are left to defend your differing viewpoint, leaving a trail of more dissenting comments which are also attacked to the nth degree. I honestly thought this federated experiment would be different. I was wrong.

      If that is how you evaluate individuals, I wouldn’t accept the invite. Principle means more than some invite to an indexer.

      Any chance I could get one off of you? I have been waiting for a post for open sign ups haha. I don’t mind not having it since I have 2 other indexers so not really in a rush for it.
