You guys are fighting the good fight!

Hope they’re successful for the sake of countries like Cuba, but I imagine this will take a long time to set up and work out the kinks.

Do you have an example of how they’ve tried to force their hand on other instances? That’s not really a thing they can do…

But communities aren’t really locked to a particular instance. Anyone can start a community that’s a clone from another instance and nothing stops everyone from migrating to that new one. Blaze has already pulled it off multiple times. If everyone doesn’t like the community on ml, then they can go to one made on another instance super easy. You can’t do that on Reddit without adding a 2 on the end or something. That’s the beauty of the fediverse.
