So I mean, most of us knew this beforehand and being on the fediverse we probably do not really care, but what was always on the horizon has no happened, the owner of Squabblr finally had enough having to be a decent person and has decided that his site is now “free speech purism”, so he gets to continue to insult LGBTQ people like he always does.
Seems from the comments that some other admins disagreed with the decision (so there were some decent people on that site!) and either left or were removed.
Not entirely surprising the whole thing, granted.
(edit)
Also, apologies as this isn’t truly reddit news but Squabblr was one of the sites frequently brought up in /r/redditalternatives so I figured this might still be relevant?
I don’t think it’s that complex though, I signed up my so and they wondered why everyone said it was so hard.
Don’t forget: try to sign up but that instance is having issues and you don’t even get a notification to let you know whether your application is pending.
This. And then get a link to a post on another instance where it just takes you to the website where you don’t have an account. It’s not very clear how that should work. It’s fine on phone apps but I’ve gotten stuck on the web a few times already.
Do you know if they would have been able to do all of that on their own?
Probably not, because it’s not explained that succinctly on the front page. That’s why we all help others come here and get people to join the way I did.
