FeralRobots<p>To paraphrase <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/GeorgeBox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GeorgeBox</span></a>, all <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/analogies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>analogies</span></a> are wrong, but some are useful.</p><p>Lot of folks involved in the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/FediverseSearch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FediverseSearch</span></a> discussions get really hung up on the VERY SPECIFIC DETAILS of their analogies.

Shoq<p>I get some objections to fediverse search, but honestly, I cant' see why anyone thinks this "network" can thrive without it. The simplest recall of things gone by is awkward to impossible without search, and it's just a vitally important tool for the future of online humanity. </p><p>Any tool can be abused. That's what moderation is for. It was one thing when fedi was experimental, and served as a needed refuge for some groups, but it's far more beyond that now. We need <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fediverseSearch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fediverseSearch</span></a>. Full stop.</p>
