    I dont think the Fediverse is a good example of not allowing certain activities.

      it is mainly cause I feel like it’s much harder to have an all goes policy, generally the reason radicalization happens on larger platforms is because it’s pretty much an everything goes type of environment. A right wing instances is not very welcoming to thoose who are not yet radicalized. overall the reach is minimized too. on larger platforms you often have proganda pushed right into your (pivot to video feed) like I get tons of anti lgbt, anti jewish, and racist videos pushed right into my feed on instagram.
