Is Lemmy more likely to succeed than Voat? Why or why not?
I don't remember what caused the Voat's origin, except it involved Reddit HQ. And then it went under in 2020.
What's different about this time and with Lemmy to make it a feasible alternative to Reddit? Is it random chance?
You're viewing a single thread.
TrumpTraitor supporting subs have already been called out and others urged to defederize with them (is that the right phrasing? I'm still new to this).For that reason alone, I feel like Lemmy will-at the very least--last longer than Voat as a viable reddit alternative.
I don't think that's a good idea. It's ultimately up to the admins of instances to keep an eye on those tiny communities.
Diversity is important, even for speech you don't agree with -- That is the beauty of democracy.
I disagree.
"Diversity" does not include--nor allow--bigotry, racism, misogyny, etc.
Sorry, but that's not diversity; that's ignorance and hatred.
Yes, if they're being bigotted, feel free to shut them down.
i just hope you endorse your anti-bigotry for all :3
but if they're just a conservative fella following the rules and is being respectful, they have a right to remain.

That's my entire point.

That's correct. If you can find a conservative person who isn't bigoted, racist, or misogynistic, then they're more than welcome.
