Unless you want to follow Adobe, who were just driven out by a mob of angry people

There are a lot of people I'd love to see content from on all of the platforms who aren't where I want them to be, for a variety of reasons. That's not really a great argument.

The argument is that this is now part of that list of reasons. Why acknowledge a problem but disregard one of the causes?

Our deepest condolences. Losing a marketing bullhorn is always difficult.

Ok I guess I'll simplify the point for you: You can't follow the "people you want to see" if the platform is so hostile that the people you want to see are driven from it.

My comment wasn't just about Adobe

Being intolerant of soulless rent-seeking corporations doesn’t turn you into a cool person. It just shows you are intolerant.

There must be a name for the phenomenon when a minority escapes persecution and hate, and upon reaching their promised land become intolerant and hateful of any outside group.

Nah, it makes gp cool as fuck actually.
