Did the reddit hivemind do a 180 or are the people left behind just the people who don't care. (kbin.social)

Prior to the protest reddit was in full support of the protest. Most polls on subs supported a shutdown. Now, seemingly every community cant understand why the protest was needed and they're calling it a mod power trip. There is a 3rd possibility. This is an unfounded conspiracy but reddit themselves could be manipulating scores.

defeats the entire purpose of the fediverse.

I dunno, this seems like really backward thinking to me.

It only "defeats" the point of the fediverse if the point of the fediverse is to be replacement-Reddit. The fediverse is unique from other such platforms in that it has the ability for instances to defederate. If anything, being able to defederate is the point of the Fediverse. If a bigger instance starts to cannibalise a smaller instance's communities and cultures, they only have a defense at all because of federalisation.
