That’s … still the case in the monolith places??
Your negativity is seriously stupid… On the level of, “Well if we cannot stop people from doing something, why even make it illegal!?”
Yes, ANYTHING can be abused. You are soooo wise for pointing that out…
Ahh yes, the ability to have different communities with different rules is WORSE than a monolith that bans anyone who disagrees with Dear Leader…
Your views are completely ignorant to what the entire point of the fediverse even is. If you want to go live under a king that can have you killed for frowning at him … leave. No one is keeping you here against your will.
I’m not saying don’t criticize it. I’m saying even understand what it’s trying to do before you start whining about how it doesn’t work.
This was always, ALWAYS going to happen. That was the plan. The idea isn’t to magically solve all of Reddit’s problems, but to decentralize the product. It’s the same product, OF COURSE it has nearly the same identical flaws on a per-instance basis.
The entire point is the federation and choice, NOT some mystical idea of a Reddit without Reddit problems. That’s just stupid expectations.
