That's what pandering to the bigger techbros spez gets.

Being there stopped being fun ever since the shits started running a massive profile-and-purge program powered by fucking AI, as even casually mentioning violence against right-wingers or POTUS and his merry chucklefucks gets your account flagged for banning. That's why there's now a chilling effect.

Yeah, and it aged hard like milk.

All my accounts were banned except one, because I used a different email address for that one. Their "AI" isn't as advanced as they want you to think. They literally just track you by email and IP.

Their profiling system is based on content in the form of posts and comments, and they used AI to build it up in addition to user-submitted reports determining one's character -- and overall ideological alignment. Mods and admins would then use that information to determine if you are a candidate for banning.
