I gotta say, I'm really disappointed in stux and the universeodon admin
when I first joined mastodon, I was amazed that we could have a community that would take a bottom up approach to removing bigotry. this was the first platform that I could be on and *know* that I wouldn't be bombarded by hate
the system of distributed instances that all need to keep their acts clean lest they be defederated, has created an open environment that should not tolerate questionable content.
basically, if you want to present your content to the rest of the fediverse, you need your content to be presentable
I'm frankly disappointed that *on the fedi* I'm being told by cis, white, middle to upper class, men that the moderation is too strong. this is supposed to be a community where we can *all* feel **safe** and comfortable to be social. this is not the place for free speech absolutism or some fantasy of an online wild west, and I think any admin who wants that should be defederated full stop.
the whole point of this damn platform was to remove centralization and curate a comfortable environment. if a person here really wants a monolithic platform with virtually no moderation, they can go back to the birdsite.
