But what stops a troll just writing whatever they think the Admins want to read in the form?
It just seems like security theatre, it provides the illusion that they are filtering their userbase, but in reality there's no way for them to validate whatever anyone writes, so it's pretty worthless.
I’d even say it’s more likely for someone that specifically wants to troll beehaw to fill out those questions and potential genuine users are more likely to just use another instance with an easier sign up process
I mean, nothing stops them that I know of. I also think it's a little pointless
