Yea….ok, it was a nice idea for five minutes, but you aren’t wrong there
I think there is some balancing that can be done to prevent bad faith twitter users from claiming space in the larger instances. The day twitter goes down, maybe capping the number of new accounts created daily could be used to prevent ban avoidances and agitate them off the fediverse or into smaller instances.
Also, I think the current model of a fediverse will definitely have cesspools regardless of where the users came from. We do have loli and pedo instances unfortunately.
Twitter's and Reddit's model was lately (in the last 5 years at least) not fighting, but encouraging motivated large-scale bad faith and bot actions. I don't know if they (the platforms) got paid for that. But I'm certain, they literally were policing against those trying to fight that, but not against such attacks.
Well, Reddit was and is worse in this regard than Twitter. And Twitter is just a medium I've never used for long, so.
I just wish the pool pissers could have their own nice contained pool, and the rest of us could swim piss free
In every walk of life the best way to diffuse is separate into the mass. Dilution is key.
