Even though millions of people left Twitter in 2023 – and millions more are ready to move as soon as there's a viable alternative – the fediverse isn't growing.1 One reason why: today's fediverse is unsafe by design and unsafe by default – especially for Black and Indigenous people, women of color, LGBTAIQ2S+ people2, Muslims, disabled people and other marginalized communities. ‌

Yeah that was kinda my point. There isn't a "by design" solution to people being people

You could build something that prevents people from being offended. Let them answer simple questions like are you offenden by . If they answer yes, no allowed to join.

I get the feeling that more and more snowflakes are easily offended and the nastiness is partly trolling as they like to offend. (and sometimes the offended like to be offended)

Maybe the only solution is sulfuric acid. (or alcohol)

That would still require posts or communities to reliably label their contents correctly right?

I strongly belief that if we all strived to get the maximum amount of alcohol into our bellies instead of the maximum amount of money into our accounts society would be much nicer.

I'm not sure about the latter. I get drowsy when drunk and fall asleep. Others have a 'bad drunk' and get violent.
