Obviously a few years ago, the API changes caused the reddit community mods to strike, and caused a mass-blackout of most reddit core communities. Eventually Reddit removed a handful of mod teams on some notable subreddits and caused the rest to chicken-out. But it did birth the Fediverse properly.

I suspect Reddit will make another step at some point which causes another comparable exodus. This time, if they do, the Fediverse is far better developed to handle it. What do you imagine it might be?

      I mean, there are NSFW instances. They’re often defederated, as often there are laws and procedures you have to follow when “distributing” porn - and when federated, “your” instance would mirror their content, which can be a headache for an instance admin. Try e.g. lemmynsfw

      yeah. it’s all over the place in the fediverse. I mean hell you can go on almost any peertube instance and instantly find it especially if you view by trending and you know there was like one guy going ham for the night.
