Now that #Gab is fully defederated from ActivityPub and the Fediverse..and that this fight seems thoroughly won..I have.been thinking about the purpose of this account.

What do folks think? My first idea here is that the work is fully over, but in some ways can serve as a model for community organizing for when NAZI's or similarly bad come knocking on the Fediverse's door again. They are never gone for good.

So good to keep the account alive to document the pushback we helped, to denote best practices. To advocate that free speech and freedom of association can co-exist quite well.

And that distributed moderation of individual instances with clear Federation policies worked FAR better than any of the mainstream centralized goliath's handling of hate, abuse, threats of violence has done.

What do folks think?

@isolategab I believe this account is best for letting people know about other nazi instances so we can them.

@nar @isolategab That account literally took like a year and a half to notice that Gab didn't federate anymore, it's not very credible
@coolboymew @nar @isolategab they didn't do a damn thing with their blocks, it was all us with our high intensity autistic anime shitposting that made gab leave the network. god these people are fucking dim.
@jeff @isolategab @nar literally this

We laughed at the boomers there and meme'd on Torba so hard they started to blacklist us and bleeding users until they finally stopped the federation

We did it all and IsolateGab did jackcrap
