The author offers a lengthy explanation in their own words as to precisely why this was done. TLDR: people are free to stop using it, but he's making these changes because he wants to offer this service on behalf of those who don't enjoy all the toxicity here.

Your TLDR reeeeeeealllllly buries the lede.

Fair, I guess that was more my own take-away from it than summary! :-P

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 1 points 6 hours ago

Eh, I guess my opinion is somewhat colored by seeing some of the things they decided to block. Like "perchance" stood out. None of that specific information was in this post.

Lmfao. I didn't make it more than a few paragraphs because it's written with the maturity of a 10 year old in a chocolate sausage museum.

You can really tell they're up for an honest and open conversation with the community, really trying to improve the Fediverse, with their locking of all comments.

He's clearly the toxic one and is projecting his issues onto hundreds of others.

Lol. TIL I'm a violent extremist. Me. Boring, professional, suit wearing, family of four having, generic white guy.

The world this guy lives in must be truly weird.

Boring, professional, suit wearing, family of four having, generic white guy.

That is like the quintessential serial killer description by his neighbors.

I mean, to be fair, here is that entire paragraph for context:

As will be explained further, there are 10 rules that are enforced, the biggest one being a very basic “don’t be a violent extremist”. That’s probably 30% of the list. Another 50% are just alts of Dwazou (persistent, long-term ban evader), and the remaining 20% just garden-variety spammers and toxic people who scare the normies away.

Based on this, it is much more likely that you are an alt of Dwazou. (Or maybe I am? 🤪 Statistically, between the three of us, you me and the author, ONE of us must be!!)

Maybe we both are. I'm not sure we'd know...
