I want everyone to know that this post right here is what solidified my decision; kbin is my new home!

Is there an equivalent Magazine for r/NotADragQueen on kbin?

Prima Farcie

Ha!

You can craft features which promote a behavior or inhibit it.

To add to your point, let's not forget that a certain social media site used their algorithm to boost content that angers people because it also boosts engagement. It shouldn't be controversial to want a social media that, like, doesn't exploit negative behaviors to generate more dollars, and I think your working towards something that specifically doesn't do that is admirable.

This argument that a social media platform not doing evil things also exclusively means it cannot attract an audience in some other way is a false dichotomy.

Well, would you look at that? When it comes to DeSantis, the user you replied to respectfully asks that "If you have criticisms, please back them up with facts and citations." But Democrats? Apparently, dems "oWn MaRxIsM" and aren't afforded the same respectful criticism backed up by factual data.

Funny how that works!!

OP wants criticisms backed up with "facts and citations" (though I'm sure actual facts will be conveniently ignored), so please allow me!

Ron DeSantis is a fascist, full stop.

You're telling me I can just block Meta/Facebook altogether here in the Fediverse?
