    The success metric is a vibrant, happy community, not MAUs or engagement numbers, so they make decisions accordingly.

    YES well said. An instance is measured by it’s quality, not it’s profitability.

      Twitter has always encouraged gawking at horrible behavior, and its culture has norms like “ratio” which promote “bad examples” so that they can be publicly shamed.

      Let’s not be like Twitter.

        Well, an instance can choose to behave like twitter, but everyone else can federate with them or not at their discretion.
