   @meowski @alex @lamp When Minds started federating, the first thing some people tried to do was spread lies about them and start trouble with their users.
   
   I don’t even blame them for not federating if they’ve been watching this behavior. “Our guys” are more annoying than Masto troons.

     @djsumdog @alex @meowski @lamp It’s actually not very funny to saw off the branch you’re sitting on.
     
     There’s nothing wrong with having fun or a little trolling, but when you’re so obnoxiously toxic that you’re an active detriment to what could be critical communication infrastructure in the future, it’s not funny, it’s just sad.
     
     We’re not on /b/. We’re allowed to care and I refuse to pretend the image board attitude is cool. /b/ is shit. /pol/ is shit. We can do better.

     @opphunter88 @djsumdog @meowski @alex @lamp Look. I'm not going to deny that bullying Gab was fun. But we also need to look at how they handled it. If they had a little bit more time, the bullying would've stopped. Think of it as a form of integration. They want to be on the free-speech side. Well they need to learn to take it too.

     @opphunter88 @meowski @lamp We're for sure our own worst enemy.

     Also, Gab was (and still is) flooded by bots. Torbin was (and still is) a grifting moron. Both Gab and Minds have shown they really don't like anime tiddy (even the non-loli variety), which is a staple of the fediverse at this point
