If the descentralization of social networks continue, we will have to prepare for the eventual rise of the instances wars, where people will start to fight about which instance is better and which one is weird to be in and so on, but that’s for the future of us all.
I suppose the crux of the matter is what each person thinks hateful content is.
I think the even deeper cruxxity crux of it all is whether a person is willing to handle their own content filtering, which requires themselves to expose themselves to content they don’t want as they evaluate content, or whether they want to be completely protected by some external system which makes those decisions for them.
In the first people must encounter shit they don’t like. In the second they don’t need to, but the system can make them blind to content that might be good for them.
