This is the very reason why the Fediverse becomes a minefield for all non-Mastodon users the very moment they establish their first out-going connection to Mastodon.
Mods are or should be more considerate and more well-read about the Fediverse. They (should) know better than to police users from other servers with different rules the same as they enforce their own rules locally.
They (should) also know that not only the Fediverse is more than Mastodon, but that the non-Mastodon Fediverse has different cultures and does not necessarily share Mastodon's unwritten rules. And ideally, they should be able to at least have a rough idea about which "toots" do not come from Mastodon itself.
A mod should know better than to attack and sanction someone who has just posted over 5,000 characters at once with text formatting, headlines, a bullet-point list and weird-looking mentions and hashtags for not complying with Mastodon's culture and Mastodon's unwritten rules because that someone clearly is on something that's very much not Mastodon.
Non-mods don't care. They attack whomever they feel disturbing. And as for the above poster, they want that kind gone from the Fediverse altogether.
Especially Mastodon servers really ought to introduce rules against excessive policing by non-mods.
And yet, it's usually the non-Mastodon users who are being accused of gatekeeping and being toxic. If they're identified (or, more often, openly identify themselves) as non-Mastodon users, that is.

And I agree, of course. I think policing overall should be left to moderators. Especially enforcing unwritten rules and expectations across different communities.

This has created a very toxic and gatekeepy atmosphere that's causing a lack of diversity on here.

Now the fact that I'm not existing in hoarding conditions and that I'm not paying for rent with survival sex is "speaking for other disabled people."
Man, I feel so advocated for I could swallow all my sleeping pills right now and make you AI haters very happy.
Do any of you actually care about people? Or is it really just ideology. It's obvious it's just ideology.
I would never treat someone going through what I'm going through the way you all have. It's never been in me to care so much for rules that I'm willing to let people suffer and die.
Like some of you are.

Please reply telling me how much you enjoy talking over disabled people, and I will gratefully block you.
I have to deal with enough shit from neurotypicals and society while battling homelessness. Go run your toxic purity tests elsewhere. AI is currently saving my life. You are—as you come at me trying to make me feel bad for not giving up—actively working to end it.
Your rage reminds me that the world is cruel and wants me dead. And I refuse to die, no matter how much you try to make me want to kill myself.
Seriously, if this is you, the kindest thing you can do for me is fuck off and let actual humans who care about other humans and not only about virtue signaling have a say.

Trauma fairies are the people who love to get you talking about your experiences and then gatekeep whether or not you get to be supported.
Anche se l'argomento videogiochi magari non vi interessa, vi consiglio di dare una occhiata alla risposta dell'autore alla discussione originata da un suo articolo sul Post, per cui é stato "maltrattato" sulla via del "su internet si fa così":
https://open.substack.com/pub/bariliesplosivi/p/se-vogliamo-che-i-videogiochi-siano?r=2r99bd
Perché a me piace vedere gente come lui, che da una parte si mette in discussione, dall'altra evidenzia come internet sia troppo spesso catalizzatore di cattive abitudini.
Is it just me or is there more #gatekeeping on Mastodon lately?
Folks. Be inclusive. Welcome reasonable, real people with views, political leanings that are not your own.

People tend to look at peer-reviewed journals as a sign of credibility. I've not written about the nonsense of peer review, but these are unadulterated gatekeeping mechanisms antithetical to knowledge dissemination.

We are witnessing the death of the self-made expert. By making high-quality output effortless, AI has turned credentials into the only remaining proxy for effort. We’ve locked the gates against the brilliantly self-taught while the 'credentialed mediocre' get a monopoly on trust.

TIL: nächstes mal, wenn ich ein einsteiger:innen freundliches Tutorial zu Tech Themen suche, hänge ich meinen CV an zum Nachweiss, dass ich auch weiss was ich tue.
Wäre ich wirklich ein Noob, würde ich mich über Hilfsangebote freuen statt zu lesen, dass ich die Finger davon lassen soll. So kommen wir nie über #gatekeeping hinweg. Wir haben alle mal klein angefangen.
The Am vs Have ontology is not just an academic exercise.
It has repercussions in peer-reviewed articles. We're taught that peer review is a gold standard, but it's orthodox gatekeeping over quality control. Referees have a narrow window into their own methods, so they reject those with counter or even hybrid perspectives.
