The only threat to this burgeoning community is the same old divide & collapse nonsense that separates citizens under their overlords everywhere.
I would create accounts and start calling to defederate instances which allow non-polite (or politically incorrect or otherwise offensive) communities.
We didn’t just survive the trolls on reddit. We thrived amongst them. We can handle them. We can block them.
I want curatorial tools to curate my own feed. I absolutely 100% do NOT want any admins telling me what I can’t read. And going to another instance is no solution if that instance is blocked.
I don’t want to be on a purely polite ecosystem, or a purely right-wing-idiot ecosystem. I want access to everybody, and the tools to curate that experience.
The trolls do NOT have the power to take us down. But the admins definitely do.
Welcome to the Defediverse.

You sure about that? You’re one of the main people that was pushing to defederate exploding-heads, which clearly hasn’t happened. Please elaborate how you’re “in the majority”

Our complaints are part of an ongoing conversation about the future of the fediverse. This is a super important moment, and this is the right time for us to flesh out all the little details in our arguments. It’s fine for you to disagree, but it’s weird for you to jump in and complain about the fact that we’re sharing our opinions.
We’re not exactly doing a mutiny or anything. We are sharing our opinions on a forum.
You’re literally and explicitly intolerant.

You are… taking part in the conversation with me. So you do think there’s a conversation to be had. And this whole site is a conversation site.
You’re worked up. Relax. I haven’t hurt you.
