I figured since their admin has asked them to stop participating over here it may be worthwhile to get a new discussion going that is primarily blahaj. I'm almost certain they'll still be upvoting so keep that in mind as that may skew things. Worthwhile to check in from instances that have already defederated them. The previous thread definitely left a bad taste in my mouth but what do y'all think?

Every instance that has talked shit and got dogpiled should be thanking us for breathing some life into their dead and boring ass websites.

Keep in mind they have been in an echo chamber for three years. It's not a surprise that there may be an adjustment period where they work on their culture and come out better.

When I think of all the times that I've marveled at the person I've become (through working on myself), I'm really impressed that I got where I am. People change and grow and adapt and evolve. So do communities.

I like that Blahaj wants to try to find solidarity. I hope for this to be the attitude on as many instances as possible.

Why should we have to suffer for their inability to socialize positively outside of their bubble?

Because we're hoping for something awesome long term, not because we want utopia right-this-minute.
