Important to read this from pichi because she is not wrong. Client balkanization. Internet truly sees censorship as damage and routes around it, you're going to find a very different FC. Though NS FC people are hardly even on FC - because you gotta clout chase on X. Or Instagram ;)

Gonna cast something that is probably an unpopular opinion, and might get me unfollowed, but it has to be said. Today I unfollowed someone who's on this network, who lives in Southern Malaysia, on an island near Singapore (I mean just say you live in Malaysia, ffs). 2.5 months away from this app, I don't care what your name is, you're active on X, there's no reason to say you think the network has potential when you yourself do not participate in it. Then I hobbled onto X to checkout people who birthed this very network. Realise there are a lot of very mid takes. I don't think being ex-anything makes you like the PayPal mafia in the end. Not that it really is a mafia, to begin with. Sometimes you just get lucky, right place, right time, right bet, but that doesn't make you great, it just makes you lucky. Winston Churchill once said, "If the present tries to sit in judgement on the past, it will lose the future." Your past does not define your future. Financial products always disclaim, past performance is no guarantee of future results. Remember that.

On exit, voice & loyalty. I would exit if everything worked on the protocol level. It doesn’t. Today you can’t do that if you depend on Direct Casts. So I have voice. For now. But sorry, there is no loyalty. Loyalty, like respect is earned, not demanded upon.
