Discord at least has community moderation tools. Xitter is just a town square where all the Neo-nazis and conspiracy theorists get louder megaphones than everyone else.

But the "my friends are there" is such a weak argument, imo. BlueSky exists. Spoutible exists. Mastodon exists. If they're IRL friends, they can just regroup elsewhere. If they're only online friends, you can make new ones pretty easily.

"My friends are there" is just a tacit admission that they don't mind sharing space with Neo-nazis.
