I personally can see it both ways. I think the biggest problem we have in society atm is we live in echo chambers on the internet. So having a platform that makes that inherently a feature I'm against.
But at the same time the great thing about the fediverse is I can just roll my own instance that doesn't ban anyone if I wanted to.
Hmm, I wonder what lemmygrad did to deserve the ban here? I see they are a pretty hardcore Marxist instance, but curious if it's just an ideology thingy with the admins here or if they did something to piss them off? It doesn't appear to be mutual lemmygrad shares this instance, and they have a TON of others banned lol

As someone with a 14 year old reddit account I forgot how much better it was before it became mainstream.
It's why I'm fine with lemmy growing organically.

This instance has gotten me to don my eye patch and sail the seven seas for the first time in years.
