I’d understand more if these communities were outright file sharing. I understand why that’s a liability. But discussion of the topic should be permitted, which said communities are exactly that. [email protected] explicitally forbids file sharing in their rules.

Let’s be real though, the admins handling of this wasn’t great. A more public discussion could have prevented backlash or allow these communities to address LW admin’s concerns.

This goes against the principles of the fediverse, I’d expect content censorship from the likes of reddit and twitter. This feels like a knee-jerk reaction to a problem that doesn’t exist on communities from completely different instances (and judging by the backlash this decision came out of nowhere without consultng the community). I seriously urge you to reconsider this decision.

Pretty much the same as the US (and I imagine other English-speaking countries) with similar age distribution (i.e. facebook mums, tiktok kids) and of course toxic cesspit behaviour on twiitter.

Even though I take issue with the BBC, I hope they choose to stay on mastadon in the long term. A large organisation like the BBC on a federated platform is sure to spread word and hopefully convince more people to join the fediverse and see it a a feasible alternative to the current big tech landscape.
