          The fallout afterwards and the insane fascist backlash from the overlord is what drove me here. Also never looked back as far as daily use goes, but sadly searches and specific niche cases (SFW, lol) still bring me there occasionally.

          Which will only matter if those instances are hosted in the US, which a lot aren’t.

              At the moment, apart from Russia, you might’ve noticed the US is going through a bit of a sticky phase with its once-friends.
