It doesn't appear like they value growth for growth's sake. And that's cool because it lets them focus on other, arguably more important, stuff. Many of our preconceived notions about social networking don't translate well to the federation model.

arguably more important stuff

Killing communists?

I'm as leftist as they come but I think it's their prerogative to defederate from any instance they want. If you and/or your content are not welcome there you should respect that. It would be kind of authoritarian otherwise, wouldn't it?

Censorship is not what's happening, because you're always free to express yourself in countless other spaces if you want. That does not mean that they're are forced to read what you say.
