The groundwork made in the apps, frontends, tools and instances is finally paying off. The masses are noticing the value!
I always thought Reddit was an exception and I wouldve drode it forever if they didn't auto perm ban me "ban evasion," and deny my appeals. I just believed there was no other option and had been arguing there for 15 years and didn't want to leave lol. Sure like 25% of my comments and 50% of my posts would get removed for not following some arbitrary rules perfectly, but it just felt like the tradeoff of a big forum. (At least here when mods only can post it's clear, on reddit you could drop a post for a game release and get it removed so a mod can post it)
