...why???
Twitter is gab 4, parler is 2, and truth is 3
I think if Hex isn't willing to deal with their "minority" of trolls/hateful users, then I think banning their server is justified. I don't want to punish the majority(?) but I don't know why we should have to deal with their toxic users when our servers wouldn't allow those kinds of users.
He's got a point. It's kinda weird how I can just block every advert I see. But also super weird to not be able to block dingleberries either.
A block is probably worth something to them though. It shows you viewed it and interacted, even if it was to block it.
I feel like the advertiser would rather I engage with their betting site instead of me blocking them. I get such trashy looking betting adverts now, none of the major betting shops as they are blocked.
