Weird racist posts from dank memes keeps showing up in my feed. Are we doing anything to prevent becoming Voat 2.0? We’re really concerned about Threads and that’s a big unknown. Weird racists already destroyed the last Reddit escape are we concerned about that? Like are we going to make a policy of defederating hate groups?

I’m pretty confident this community is using fake accounts since every post starts at ~20 and then gets down voted after it’s been forced into a bunch of people’s feed.

If not that’s fine I guess but does anyone have a suggestion for somewhere that will?

    There’s actual moderation on each community, so that helps. As does the fact that it’s not being populated just by people who were booted from Reddit for being too hateful.

    It’s inevitable there will be a corner of the fediverse that’s hyper-racist, though. Having an authority is a double-edged sword but so is not having one.
