    okay by their rules (what many of us just left Reddit over)

    People are leaving Reddit over their moderation rules? I thought the CEO did something with the API.

    But I mean, yeah, people who have compatible instance rules will federate and the people on those instances will have agreed to those rules. I think you might be overestimating how restrictive typical rules are, unless you think transphobia being called “not okay” is too restrictive.

      I think it’s fair to consider the Reddit admins making unilateral decisions that drastically alter how users can use the platform as “their rules”.

      I meant that people are leaving Reddit over Reddit pulling up the walls around them and restricting who and how you can interact with their content.
