Your link is pointing to the general mastodon.social instance and not to birds.town. To see local birds.town posts, go to [0]. Looks like birds-only to me w/o any politics, tho I'm not aware of any of these birds' political preferences.
And generally, whenever there's people annoying me, I just unfollow/mute/block them - problem solved.

- monksy 4y agoCool, there's a mastodon instance about government drones.
- peterashford 4y agoYeah. Blocking / muting is required to shape ANY social media feed to your liking.
- sbuttgereit 4y agoThis is correct, but the birding server served that link to me while just perusing its default landing page. The point I was answering was that I saw what I saw because I used a single instance of a Federated service (mastodon.social)... my counter-point here was that the instance really didn't matter. I was served, by default, largely the same toxic content across the 20 or so servers I ended up landing on. Yes, I can unfollow, mute, block, etc. anyone that I decide isn't someone I want in my life. But I'm pretty sure I could do that on Twitter, too (could be wrong, I've not been there for a long time). Life's too short. Maybe the local feed would have been much better... or maybe the warm cozy Mastodon isn't that which competes with Twitter, but that which competes with Discourse or Discord.
