It definitely feels like I have a voice in the spaces that I hang out here. The comments in reddit, insta, fb are so swollen that comments seemed pointless unless you comment on brand new posts. Maybe not everything needs to be here.
I will just say, that image of what the fediverse is (or ought to be), while not rare, is not shared by everyone.
If you actually want gatekeep only high effort posta you might want to go to Tildes.
I don't think gatekeeping is the answer, I mean I always wanted this platform yo grow horizontally unless there are many, many instances and a lot of people for variety. If you want to see only high effort content only join appropriate communities, it's as easy as that. To justify blthr block because it will taint the space is just a bad arguments in my eyes.

the amount of people on activitypub that are excited for Instagram threads amazes me.
Exactly!!!
I don’t know, I had some good tweets back on SpaceKaren.social.
Most memes are reposts and I am totally fine with that.
I see Zuckerberg trying to capture the Fediverse as a good thing, but only because it will test how resilient it is, and expose any weak spots the community can fix.
Bad actors are inevitable in a federated network, and they're supposed to become increasingly ostracized if they keep at it. Let's see how resilient the Fediverse is against a thirsty bad actor with a deep wallet.
It's too much in it's younger stages though. Maybe they could come back when it's reached adulthood, the fediverse is jailbait for the big corps and should be kept from the creepy stalkers like Meta.
Strange that I do not see those people who would accept meta with open arms. How could a conscious person could be receptive towards such an abusive platform?
