I love snac. I love the philosophy behind it. I love the high character limit. I love the fact that it works in Links2. I love the minimalism. I love the way the public view of profiles appears like a basic blog. I love that it is endorsed by prahou (the creator of unix_surrealism, who actually gave me this account; massive thanks, btw).

However, there are a few issues, one of which I cannot ignore. Self-moderation on this platform is not possible, meaning that my recent post promoting my article on mobile web browsers had to be deleted and re-posted after a certain incredibly racist bot account replied to it and I was unable to do anything.

I have also found that I have barely read or posted on the fediverse since I switched over.

There is also the matter of client compatibility is also an issue, but this does not impact the following decision much.

As a result of everything, I have decided to move back to my Mastodon account, @470m@mstdn.social, effectiv immediately.

Thanks for the last month or so. Other than what I've mentioned, it has been excellent, and who knows? Maybe I'll be back in the future.
