The sad truth is the other site will be fine, it'll just chug on without all of us -- or with us, in a reduced capacity. There will be times where it'll hit new highs of active users, even.

There has always been a market for disinformation and hate. If the other site suffers the same fate the equivalent news outlet does, it'll be the dominant social media platform in short order.

At the risk of being saccharine, I'm glad we're here and we have this. I hope you all stay.

@andrew I suspect you are correct. It was probably too much to ask for all the haters and trolls to just go home and be quiet. Still, I will forever be grateful that the twitter meltdown brought to my attention that a troll-free mini-universe truly exists.
@etnom We're all hopeful we can keep it troll-free. Unfortunately (I'm using that word a lot) they will come, hopefully we will handle them (as a whole) better than the other places have.
