As much as I understand beehaw admin has every right to defedorate with any instance, and I respect the decision for beehaw admin to look after the community.
However, it seems this instance is no longer for me. I want to see more content by more people. I understand there need to be a balance of content quantity vs content quality. I personally think that beehaw is leaning too much towards quality for me.

Huffman said 97% of Reddit users do not use any third-party apps to browse the site.
“And the opportunity cost of not having those users on our platform, on our advertising platform, is really significant,”
By “significant”, he means 3%??? That is not factoring how much profit these 3% of people’s content can provide.
So all of these fuzz just to have a one time increase of less than 3% of the profit, even at the cost of more than a million (57 million * 3%) user’s privacy, that is freaking ridiculous.
How dare you suggest that children and our future are more important than old millionaire boomer trolls, that uses every fiber of their being to screw everyone over so that they can have enjoy free vacations from their CEO friends?
Apple has repeatedly given in to Chinese government’s invasive policies, despite all their marketing on “privacy”; because China is a huge market for them. As much as I hate google for most of their practices, they have the basic decency to volunteeringly leave China when their regulations is against the company value.
