Jury is still out on Twitter. It very well could fail.

It just didn’t happen the instant Musk entered the building. This type of thing usually happens on longer timeframes. Digg died unusually fast.

If an instance does off because Meta won’t defederates from it, then it probably would have died off anyway.

It would be a shame if subreddits changed their rules to make photos of Tiennamen Square mandatory in all posts.

Defederating helps because it limits their reach to a wider community. They’re currently a small group because Lemmy and Kbin are new. If they’re left unchecked, they will grow.

You are never going to eliminate groups like this, but deplatforming them prevents their ability to radicalize more people.

lol, okay

Banning white supremacy is not the same thing as making an echo chamber.

Support for Trump is inherently racist, homophobic, transphobic, and misogynistic.

Not yet. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were trying to build an automated way of doing this.
