      You’re talking to a site with many former redditors who left a lot of comfort and communities behind to tell the reddit staff they can’t get any with infringing on users’ safety, comfort, and accessibility. afaic they are superior cause by simply being here, helping fediverse grow, and interacting with reddit as little as possible, they are sending that message louder and clearer than any of the redditors who caved in their protests and remained.

      I shit on former redditors a lot. I complain about some of the culture they dragged along with them that is neither conductive or helpful to creating meaningful conversation. I even complain sometimes this place can feel a lot like reddit at times. But if there is one thing I can say about much of the former reddit community here is they are people of their convictions. Their integrity meant more to them than the comfort they enjoyed on the former site.
