That's actually nor possible because there's no global feed. Your network is what you make of it. I'm not a fan of voat types so I don't interact with them online all that often.
It's interesting, the people that tell you that they're in the majority somehow also believe that online spaces that are left for open discussion don't wind up the way they want them to, almost as if they're a minority.
Or they're just not interested in wading through far-right extremists for 3 shitty memes.
After all, if your theory about "open spaces turn into Nazis and pedos because most people are secretly Nazis and pedos" were actually true, those sites would be the biggest sites in the world, not tiny little bubbles that last 6 months.
That's the great thing, without servers and global feeds you don't have to wade through anything.
It's not my theory, saying "without heavy handed moderation places turn into Nazis" is jot the same as saying "tiny little spaces designed to cater to Nazis turn into nothing but Nazis." I'm arguing about the former statement, not whatever it is you're saying here.
Has nothing to do with minority and all to do with toxicity
That's a big part of why I have abandoned fedi actually, pretty much the while dn network is full of toxicity. I think k it's an emergent property of the network architecture.
