It became the only reliable source of information I had. People posted links with a minimal amount of commentary, picking and choosing the best content from other social media networks. They’re not doing it to “build a brand” because that’s not a thing in the Fediverse. It’s too disjointed to be a place to build a newsletter subscription base.

I was perma banned for calling someone "A fucking piece of human garbage" as they openly and brazenly advocated for the death of trans people.

I got banned, the person calling for Trans people to be killed did not.

That's unfortunately pretty standard.

Whereas, on Facebook, nobody gets banned. I've literally reported people inciting violence towards others. However, it seems permitted by community standards these days

At least the person who argued with me got swept up in whatever bot was Permabanning people too

Very similar experience for me. I said the only good Nazi was a dead Nazi. Permabanned. I don’t miss it at all
