> Graf started defederating people from KF,

Yeah, that happened. This caused some friction when KF dropped their instance and those people all spread out and they were blocked on sight at Poast, but Josh Moon had set up his alt on Poast and they couldn't talk to him any more. Poast had the ACCollective chick trying to dox random users and the KF people were having Torswats try to get graf arrested/raided on a regular basis.

> general toxicity increased by a lot.

This definitely occurred. That is what I expected was their goal. And because of their association with KF, it changed a lot of people's perception of the place from "weird but mostly harmless edgy forum with a lot of videos of autistic men jacking off" to "the place that is actively trying to kill the internet". Eris even went after Moon from SPC, a guy that there is literally no reason to go after.

The visible people were just the retards sent out to troll, though; all of them had advance notice of the Chudbuds hack and Eris and Trollcow showed up to spam gamer words on the stream (Twitch takes down streams if the mods ignore that stuff, so they can't ignore it) and (visible from the Chudbuds leak) bot had been trying to get information from the admin, then cut off contact with her the week before. The people you see weren't in charge of anything, it's like all those screechy pedos that were using the Newgon debate script: the people you were interacting with were not the people that were deciding anything, they were just the retards that wanted to participate but didn't know how to do the hacking or the swatting or whatever, so they did the low-effort trolling.
