I'm here for the gangbang?

The idea to obfuscate posts of everyone you don't follow by default is interesting. As it is I just followed everyone, but if any of yall fuck up I guess I can just unfollow?

It creates sort of an odd mindset of needing to "peek"(follow) everyone to find out if you are into their content. Which I think might overly benefit/trend toward a smaller user base. Could you imagine if you had to follow every single person on say, 4chan, just to see what they are posting?

If the site had sub-pages I could see having one where posts are all un-obfuscated by default. Sort of like an advertising board to more readily find people to follow. That being said I enjoy the more minimalist format of this site and I'm interested to see how it progresses.

    Thanks for the meta post. My main goal is to not have to do any moderation. I figure if everyone has to opt-into content then moderation becomes practically unnecessary.

        If they want to opt-into that type of content that's their choice.

        I think Gab brought it on themselves by marketing it as anti-SV/pro free speech etc
