The GenP subreddit got banned on Reddit. We can only take a guess as to why(I seriously don’t know, please let me know if you do).
But regardless, it brings up a serious question. How will big corpos and nations force their control on lemmy and other fediverse communities?
Places like reddit, twitter, instagram and even “fediverse” bluesky cave to demands from corporates and countries all the time. But what happens when the real fediverse platforms get attention?
How will they ban, sabotage and coerce instances and communities to cave into demands?
I know lemmy and other fediverse platforms are still very small right now, but I believe it’s only time before the sabotage begins. Instagram stepping into the territory tells you how scared zuck already is.
And How will we get around this?
Through legal actions probably. They’ll sue and the volunteers who manage these instances will cave in because they have a mortgage/lease to pay and possibly a family to take care of, etc.
