I’ll preface by saying I’m not a user of this instance. My opinion is that alt-right is synonymous with fascists. Giving fascists any platform will always result in their attempts to silence you and take your platform away. I think the ability to defederate with toxic communities is a blessing we shouldn’t fear so much. If their ideas are acceptable, they’ll find an audience. Either by being accepted by other instances, or others joining theirs. I just think it’s important to be loud about the decision so that if others want to hear their beliefs, they can check them out.
I feel what we’re seeing is a lack of OC from actual humans, that is being filled in by your standard karma farming bot. Doubt we’re at the AI filled posts time yet.

While I think it would be more than a few minutes, this would still limit people’s time on Twitter. I can’t imagine advertisers are super happy about that idea.
Yes, because selling your home and moving your family and all your belongings several hundred miles is exactly equivalent to making a second lemmy account. Expecting sever owners who invest time and money into this to cater to your wants when making a second account is too hard is fair and doesn’t come off as whiney behavior at all either.
