Oh man, sorry you went through that. They try to ‘dunk’ on me quite often, but it always backfires on them, funnily enough. Never had any of them actually confront me. Too scared, I suppose.
Meh, I’m not worried about myself, so much as whether the Fediverse itself will survive. Every single person that I’ve recommended it to irl comes back in our next encounter with how much politically extremist - and violent - rhetoric is used. Chapotraphouse is the least of the Fediverse’s troubles, though it too is one of them.
Overall though they seem connected: not wanting to defederate from either lemmy.ml with its constant calls for guillotines (I mean… not that I don’t understand the reason for such:-) or from hexbear.net, mainstream users are being turned away.
And since like 90% of Fediverse content is made by a couple handfuls of people, I do worry about our long-term sustainability. Oh well.
