Reddit is so untrustworthy. r/modcoord thread purges all pro-fediverse comments, then r/redditalternatives removes the thread exposing it. (sh.itjust.works)

r/redditalternatives thread: This is why I don't trust anything on reddit. A r/modcoord thread full of anti-fediverse comments, and all of my pro-fediverse comments are removed and the mods won't answer why. https://web.archive.org/web/20240111205116/https://old.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/comments/193iuf1/this_is_why_i_dont_trust_anything_on_reddit_a/

Yeah it's a damn tricky balance. In order for there to be enough people to support super niche communities, you need a shit load of people. If you have a shit load of people, then posts on All have tens of thousands of comments, so the odds of you being able to say something and have a discussion goes drastically down.

Personally, I love being able to sort by Top 12 Hours, comment on the top post and having people respond. I also like that it's not at all rare to have someone comment on a post I made weeks ago, since posts aren't drowned out by the mass of content. Sure I don't have a community to talk about the nitty gritty details of the latest game I'm playing, or whatever, but I think it's a nice trade off.

It doesn't have to be that way here. Each instance can have its own news and politics communities, while sharing the niche stuff.

I wonder if an Instance can choose to not federate specific communities. Maybe the tech isn't there yet, but it can be.
