Deleted mine after they refused to let me make a comment on an unrelated group that Gatwick Airport is horrible on a Monday morning. Figured the algorithmic moderation was terrible and likely to waste my time conforming to some narrow and undefined form of speech. Not allowed to make a rational criticism.

Then two days later, rather than fix that, they announce the change to moderation methodology which has benefits to the highest bidder rather than the community.

Smells like another cesspit like X in the making.

Gone! Both are bad. The problem is the platform existing at this point.

You act like Facebook isn't already a cesspit. Anyone who claims any mainstream social network site isn't a cesspit is being fruitful with the truth, they're the sum of humanity and humanity sucks.

Oh there’s cesspits and there’s cesspits.

Facebook at least had some small community groups and market place utility.
