i’m doing it because I want to make the fediverse more friendly place, in hopes of making it more welcoming for new users, and the nicer place in general. But I wonder how much is just less bots.

    I think subs like publicfreakout were definitely a better example of agitation. Had to filter that shit out.

      Public freakout was more agitation but even then it was like people can be so stupid or it was genuine content about people being treated unfairly that was creating some awareness.

      For me the genuine agitation things were the ragebait stuff like 5 minutes hacks/crafts and posting blatantly wrong or reprehensible takes to generate negative engagement like a lot of content on AITA.
