    Did they really allow it?

    Someone made a username with a slur in it. Two hours later they were banned and the redundancy patched. A little after that an apology was announced.

      Yeah, this reads like such a nothingburger I don’t see why it’s news. Yeah, they didn’t add enough filters, but fixed it as soon as it was pointed out. Why continue the outrage?

      In a vaccum it wouldn’t be such a big issue, but it’s already a pattern at this point.

      It’s another microblogging site backed by Jack Dorsey (former Twitter CEO) and other venture capital. They made a lot of claims and now they are failing to follow-up. I think they are still invite-only so even if you do care, you need someone who is in already to join.
