    Its kind of sad that the social media alternatives are all extreme. I was on odysse for a bit but I left because it was filling up with literal nazis

      As far as I can tell, Bluesky doesn’t have the extremism problem because normal people actually care about it. I can’t say for sure, because I can’t get in, but a lot of normal people I used to follow on Twitter went there.

      There’s also Hive Social, which is heavily moderated, but it doesn’t seem to have taken off much.

      Good thing is that communists are such a tiny portion of the populace that as this site grows at all, they’ll swiftly be drowned out. They’ll either flee to new obscure social media, cluster in their own federation, or accept that they’re minorities anywhere that’s popular.

      Most people are normal people.
