IMO the protests are having an effect. I haven’t been on there for 2 days (full disclosure: was given 1 week suspension under dubious pretense while I was mass editing + deleting all my comments), but, before then there was a huge undercurrent support for the protests but a lot of outright hostile naive complaints regarding them.
At this point it feels like the majority of those that are willing to leave have left, and the rest is a dumpster fire of increased hostility. Everyone is angry for seemingly ridiculous reasons. You can’t post anything without somebody saying something absurdly contrarian within a day or 2. TBH I really think there’s a ‘instill anger’ bot program (and its replicants) running amok now and the moderators can’t (or are unwilling to) keep up with it.
I just went back to check something- I was given a permanent suspension last week with no explanation. Suddenly it’s been reversed. Something weird as fuck is going on. Oh well, fuck them. They’ve lost a power user.

Why not just delete?
