In the spirit of the Ancient Greek Agora, we invite you to join our vibrant community - a contemporary meeting place for the exchange of ideas, inspired by the practices of old. Just as the Agora served as the heart of public life in Ancient Athens, our platform is designed to be the epicenter of meaningful discussion and thought-provoking dialogue.
Here, you are encouraged to speak your mind, share your insights, and engage in stimulating discussions. This is your opportunity to shape and influence our collective journey, just like the free citizens of Athens who gathered at the Agora to make significant decisions that impacted their society.
You're not alone in your quest for knowledge and understanding. In this community, you'll find support from like-minded individuals who, like you, are eager to explore new perspectives, challenge their preconceptions, and grow intellectually.
Remember, every voice matters and your contribution can make a difference. We believe that through open dialogue, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to discovery, we can foster a community that embodies the democratic spirit of the Agora in our modern world.

I don't think they've been rule-breaking, I just think they're generally a bit heavy-handed with rhetoric / annoying
thank you wheegee.
I'm probably going to personally. But as a site, I haven't seen enough to wasn't to do that.
Again, limited info to go on.
But no.
Until I see reason to change that. They are a confusing bunch though.
no

Nay.
Provided the moderators on sh.itjust.works feel capable of dealing with any outright hate speech or harassment from that community, I think most of us are big enough people we can deal with hearing differing view points. If someone has a big enough problem with a single user or community, there is always a user-side block as well. My only reservation would be if the degree of spam/harassment is over taxing our community moderators. I recall how many of us in sh.itjust.works were offended when Beehaw defederated us -- for the same sort of reasons (too much spam, too much harassment, the wrong kind of people, etc etc etc).
No.
But if better moderation tools don‘t come into existence, we should reconsider.

they are all very cringe but not worth defederation
You know this is not the way it works here, so this is trolling. Open a voting ticket by starting a discussion thread, perhaps?
