So I mean, most of us knew this beforehand and being on the fediverse we probably do not really care, but what was always on the horizon has no happened, the owner of Squabblr finally had enough having to be a decent person and has decided that his site is now “free speech purism”, so he gets to continue to insult LGBTQ people like he always does.

Seems from the comments that some other admins disagreed with the decision (so there were some decent people on that site!) and either left or were removed.

Not entirely surprising the whole thing, granted.

(edit)
Also, apologies as this isn’t truly reddit news but Squabblr was one of the sites frequently brought up in /r/redditalternatives so I figured this might still be relevant?

  • Except going to “all” only provides content from other instances that people on your instance are subscribed to. That is not well understood nor well explained. Whereas “all” on reddit is actually “all.”

      As a counterpoint, “all” on reddit isnt “all” of reddit. Its an algorithmic concoction of things that you, or people like you, have spent large sums of time engaged with. Its designed only to keep you on the site, by any means possible.

      It seems direct, but it’s actually secretly limiting. The fediverse seems limiting, but you can actually access “all” here.

      It doesn’t really matter if it’s from other instances though, you can still see and look at it so who cares where it sits

      • No, it does matter. You can’t see it in all unless others in your instance are subscribed and it’s copied the server. You don’t see everything from other instances by default. Although there are tools to aid this issue, it’s not “easy” to discover smaller communities by browsing all.
