MODERATORS
Yes.
But here's the thing:
Reddit/Lemmy: those people have equal voice to you or me. Of course they can amplify that voice with sockpuppets, but still - one account one vote.
Old Twitter: those people have downmodded influence. Twitter knew everybody hates them and treated them like the garbage they are.
New Twitter: those people rule the roost, because they're willing to pay Elon $8/mo for a megaphone for their jackassery.
You can pay $8/mo and have your own platform too. What's the issue?
