@stux Makes it more difficult to ban the trouble makers and bad actors but that's a small price to pay in my opinion 😁 @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social @Jessica @GreenLantern@mas.to

People have the freedom to move servers right πŸ˜„ Especially these days with all import/export options πŸ’ͺ :mastodon_oops:

@KoalaBeans @terryenglish @Jessica @GreenLantern

@terryenglish @GreenLantern @KoalaBeans @stux gab could be a perfectly fine right wing conservative cesspit, but putting them in a echo chamber is just making them go insane.
They think they're better than twitter, but they're literally just the right wing version of twitter.

and it's full of boomers because anyone with half a braincell would realize that they're literally in a echo chamber
@terryenglish @stux @GreenLantern @KoalaBeans I don't like gab, but i feel that's not the fault of the users, they're not allowed to talk to anyone that would argue their opinion.

I mean, it's literally just Right Wing twitter. If the community was much more open to criticism, there wouldn't be much of what's going on now where they're all crazy

@thor@mstdn.social That's especially bad in politics too because usually those kinds of people, while skilled at grabbing power, have the most mediocre minds when it comes to policy and leadership. @happymoomoo @stux @GreenLantern@mas.to @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social

@thor@mstdn.social No I don't think so either. Those kinds of people run the Fortune 500 and Wall Street. @happymoomoo @stux @GreenLantern@mas.to @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social

@thor@mstdn.social Then there are the real psychopaths who are gifted at mimicking empathy and can charm anyone but can only really think of themselves. Other people are either tools or obstacles. @happymoomoo @stux @GreenLantern@mas.to @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social

@GreenLantern@mas.to I never really got into it either. I just hear all the drama going on there through the grapevine. @thor@mstdn.social @stux @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social

@happymoomoo He only has one. He got bought off cheap lol πŸ˜‰ @stux @GreenLantern@mas.to @thor@mstdn.social @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social

@thor@mstdn.social The same thing seems to be happening to reddit. @stux @GreenLantern@mas.to @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social

@thor@mstdn.social He's not accustomed to taking orders lol. He wanted to run his platform as he liked but it's not just his anymore it would appear. @stux @GreenLantern@mas.to @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social

@thor@mstdn.social I don't think he realized that once his platform became a source of power that he would be forced play ball with the established power and work for them. So far he's been pretty happy to go along. @stux @GreenLantern@mas.to @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social

@thor@mstdn.social It's the same mentality as "you're either with us or against us". @stux @GreenLantern@mas.to @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social

@stux Fortunately though as the Fediverse attracts more people and expands those purity obsessed instances will become a minority and their purity games will no longer matter. @GreenLantern@mas.to @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social

@stux Gab is also a litmus test for a lot of the most extreme mastodon instances who strive for ideological purity. By not blocking Gab a good deal of mastodon instances would then block you in retaliation for non compliance. So definitely political costs associated with not blocking Gab in this part of the Fediverse. @GreenLantern@mas.to @KoalaBeans@mstdn.social
