MODERATORS
I'm not as optimistic. Some people will complain and move to alternative platforms. But the vast majority won't care and continue using the abusive platform, forcing the rest to use it sometimes. The best example for this is Reddit and Lemmy.
I'm not forced into anything, i can choose to not contribute anything to Reddit and still read it via alternative frontends to keep user number measurement low.
I found a place here and i choose to contribute here with people like me going the extra mile just because we can and we have the options. The majority can stay over there, some of these people made my blood boil too often anyway and i'm far better off with like minded people.
I'm using Lemmy and Mastodon and so many open source projects because i believe in it and want to support the cause.
