    Broadly, .world is fairly obviously mirroring the sycophantic policies of X/Meta/Reddit.

    The only real question I have is whether it’s primarily rooted in ambition or fear - whether the admin are actively trying to be admitted to the ranks of Trump-approved™ social media, or if they’re just afraid that if they don’t kowtow, they’re going to get TikToked.

        Ah… yes.

        It became obvious to me that something was up with the announcement a while back that said, once you sifted through all the diversionary puffery and bullshit, that .world was going to follow Vichy Twitter’s and Meta’s lead and allow hate speech and misinformation.

        But I assumed they were doing that for the same reason Meta is - to suck up to Big Baby Fascist. I hadn’t considered that they were doing it to suck up to Meta.

        Now it all makes sense.

      Yeah I can’t tell if some mods on . world are natural bootlickers and actually LARP this shit for free OR they straight up threat actors
