the fediverse is turning into a collection of leftist echo chambers due to this and now i’m wondering if it’s worth it to back to that reddit shithole.
martin luther king was right: moderates fuck everything up more than anyone else
Let me give an example: I have a friend on Bluesky. He’s as middle of the road as it’s possible to be (and I say that in an entirely neutral way; it makes him neither better nor worse than anyone). He’s nice, and a good person. But he’s aggressive, disruptive, a fight-picker, and a single-issue conversationalist on social media. Bluesky seems to have a disproportionate number of people who are very nice, well-meaning, but aggressive and disruptive. I left Bluesky to exit an echo chamber for something more serene. I think that’s one thing the loud folk don’t quite get, regardless of their ideology: not all of us are here to yell and throw things all the time.

Good for you. I blocked that instance the second that was an option.

There are instances that don’t defederate at all. Or block piracy communities.
