The most important thing people have on Fediverse is freedom of choice and, I hope, of expression. There are countless isolated communities outside of it, corporate or not, which one can use as a safe space when necessary. I really hope this decentralized archipelago will not turn into a) centralized echo chamber, or b) even more decentralized set of very small echo chambers. We need to be able to experience everything that there is, and react to it if/however we like. And for that, we need substantial amount of communities to be federated to everyone else. I hate when some delusional freak praises Mao or Stalin, who literally washed the land with the blood of the innocent and built a new order on their bones. Or when someone writes a trolling(?) post which implies open racism. But I better be able to read those posts than not.

Yeah. And the same for communism

Well, if you think about it, Apple is a good example of corporate greed and ignorance to its users. They will sell some nonsense accessory for $1k, call it a nice name and Apple fans would be happy to buy it. So, it’s surprising that this subreddit even took part in blackout at all.
