The platform has suddenly suspended dozens of high-profile accounts, cutting people off from the communities that keep them safe.

Corporations really want the Fediverse to succeed.

[–] Madison_rogue@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

That seems to be the case. Ditch IG and let them come to Fedi instead. There's room for sex positive people, positively.

EDIT

Yet this is also another casualty of shittification, so what would we expect? Meta is all over the place with their moderation. I still have a FB account and occasionally I'll receive warnings for posts I made 5-10 years ago. No link to the post, no arguments, no real recourse. While I kind of don't care, a part of me does. I wonder what innocuous thing someone at FB didn't like on my friends only visible account (which probably really isn't that way because FB sucks).

No wonder why meta wants to take part of the fediverse! /s

Sex education or people and communities that aren't ashamed of their sexuality

The accounts attracted to the sex-negative accounts.

I don't really see any sex positive accounts on instagram, all I see is a flood of spam accounts trying to promote their OF, and I'm happy to see those go. It doesn't matter what the topic is, they're just spam accounts and nothing else. If anything, I would expect, and hope, it's instagram cracking down on that and a few legit accounts got caught in the crossfire.

I mean, just because you personally don't see them doesn't mean they don't exist.

[–] crossmr@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Okay. But as fun as these anecdotal stories are, do we have any actual information on what is allegedly occurring?

[–] GeekFTW@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

Still glad I deactivated my IG account a loong time ago lol

[–] SpaceMonk@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

The psychos who own companies nowadays can’t sell health, it’s bad for business! /s

[–] ShesDayDreaming@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Just like the discourse to sanitise pride so it's family friendly, all this is about is trying to make their platforms "family friendly" to attract advertisers and that's it.
