That you're not walking on eggshells.
My username/account was deleted when I (deservedly) berated a racist-sexist-homophobic guy. My comments were removed but his hateful posts remained.
So hopefully we won't get biased and power-tripping admins and mods here.
We will. But it's gonna be contained to instances and communities there and opening a new community on another instance is easy af
I think the thing is that even if we do (and we will), you can always just move to another community discussing the same thing.
I see all the people wanting "meta-communities" so that they can subscribe to the one thing, but it really seems nice to have a range of small communities covering the same topic. Less chance of your favourite thing being gatekept by a random powertrip.
