To which of these affiliations do you have the most loyalty?

[stinerman@mastodon.social]

@evan university, city, instance. Political party is NULL.

[me@social.jlamothe.net]

@evan Since I self-host, loyalty to my instance would feel a little self-serving.

[bakachu@infosec.exchange]

@evan to humanity and civilisation and the general common good?

[funcrunch@me.dm]

@evan

University: Northwestern. Got a good education there, but no loyalty to them.
https://www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-news/trading-truth-transphobia-northwestern-university

Political party: None.

Fediverse instance: @medium. Concerned that they haven't been posting here,* and don't know how long this instance will last.

City: San Francisco, one of the few places in the US I feel *relatively* safe as a queer Black trans person.

* I helped manage this instance briefly as a contractor in 2025; almost no activity since then.

@evan I'm allergic to non-human loyalty. Gives me hives. And my loyalty to people is earned and conditional on them not being a dick.

[funcrunch@me.dm]

@evan

To clarify, I voted for city. Though I have no particular loyalty to the US, San Francisco has been my home for 23 years.

[evan@cosocial.ca]

@Quasit there's a million other things you could have loyalty to. This poll is about which of these four you have the most loyalty to.

@philip a lucky break!

[pomegranate_stew@kind.social]

@evan
Pretty partial to kind.social. I feel more at home there than I’ve ever felt in the town I’m in, especially recently, since others here keep electing people who think two of my kids don’t exist.

I’m party-free and have been for a long time. We recently visited our Uni and the state and the entire downtown in the formerly relatively left-leaning city seems to have been taken over by Trump-humpers, so I couldn’t care less about that any longer.

@evan
I'm running my own single user instance so it's kind of cheating, but hey

[somekindofgarf@kind.social]

@evan University: That I didn't go to?
City: Honestly wish I could support a nomad lifestyle.
Political Party: I will abandon them without a second thought if they start acting up.
Instance: These peeps are wonderful, and if someone shows up who isn't I can just prune that immediately.

Yeah, instance easy.

[alisonw@hachyderm.io]

@evan
I feel strongly in favour of Boston because sports but I've never been there, and it's a personal instance so that can't count. Hate where I live so politics it is!

[openrisk@mastodon.social]

@evan so if all cities where to run instances they'd get 85% loyalty, or is my math wrong?

(instances running cities is a bit too solarpunk)

[astra_underscore@wetdry.world]

@evan
My school and my city genuinely don't do much for me, and my political party doesn't really exist since I am an anarchist.... I am not saying I would die for Wet Dry dot World, but....

[anarchiv@todon.nl]

@evan I'm going to have to think about this one. It's definitely not my instance, and probably not my party either.

[philip@mastodon.mallegolhansen.com]

@evan I planned it just for your question.
