    As it grows I think it will be much easier to justify a new person or instance in cutting off entire toxic areas and that will only cause it to grow faster.

    Right now we all have to weigh the balance between activity and toxicity but eventually we shouldn’t need to make that calculation, we can have “high moderation” and “low moderation” versions of every topic.












  • I think it’s a cool idea, there is so much empty engagement for engagement’s sake by a super small handful of accounts that it’s basically just spam. I can’t imagine someone checking out the fediverse is going to see endless feed old memes and decide this is superior to reddit in any way.

    Not all of us want an endless content feed, I like slower social media with more thoughtful and respectful discussions and I like seeing developers that understand that and try to bake it in.
