Nobody speaks for "The Fediverse."
I keep seeing posts declaring what The Fediverse believes, wants, or demands, often with ALL CAPS and a wall of #hashtags. It often slides into outright gatekeeping.
The fediverse is decentralized by design. Its opinions are too.
@lefractal Saving this for when someone inevitably complains again about the Fediverse being too much something or other again.
The Fediverse is antisemitic! The Fediverse is overzealously politically correct! The Fediverse is unwelcoming to new users! The Fediverse scares away celebrities!
It's an entire platform filled with tons of people with entirely different opinions on everything. Just not many Nazis. But those are there too!
