What's not a sign someone's an asshole, but is often misinterpreted as one?

You can, but users on their instance can’t

Why would anyone want to be on an instance like that?

I don’t know. It’s a right removed.

But more seriously it might just be that they found that instance first and haven’t seen that problem that much yet (or figured out it’s their instance that does it) or that they haven’t figured out how to switch instances yet (or haven’t taken the time). Or some people actually like it. It’s just weird to me, but I’m in the penultimate category I mentioned.

not all of us want to see such rude or derogatory words. Especially sexist, xenophobic, homophobic, transphobic, ableist or racist words.
