Users are people capable of making their own choices. It they don’t like the moderation approach they can just make a new account elsewhere. You don’t get to tell them what they like.

This is the thing that excites me the most about the fediverse. If we can keep it from being monopolized by corporations, it will become a reflection of what the old internet used to be.
This is hearsay, but I believe it is temporary until better moderation features are developed and user influx shows down.
It’s not about the servers, it’s about moderation. They have a clear vision of what their instance should be like but they don’t have the tools not moderators to make it so while getting traffic from other big instances
Email works, or used to until giant corporations consolidated hundreds of small providers into a handful. I don’t know why it wouldn’t work for this.
Sure, the average user doesn’t care how it works. That doesn’t mean they can’t use it as intended anyway.
I can live with that. Actually, I would be happy with that if that means those power users will be coming here.
They are not power tripping, if you’ve read their posts you’d know that they have a very concrete view of the story of community they want to build and unfortunately their manpower and moderation tools just don’t allow them to stick to it while staying federated with rapidly growing communities.
