I know there was some schism and moving of instances, but beyond that I can’t deduce what happened/is happening.

    They stated pretty directly it wasn’t about the Dragonfucker incident, nor did it involve policies on neopronouns. Drag wasn’t even banned for anything to do with neopronouns.

    I think the move to lemmy.world was a mistake, but I believe them when they say it has nothing to do with the neopronouns policy.

      Yeah I think the above comment is inappropriately tying the issue to a topic they specifically said wasn’t the motivation

          “the misinformation is popular, despite those involved disregarding it. so I shall believe it.”

            That seems to be the gist of what is happening en masse, yes. Regardless of what the true events may be, this is how everyone is going to end up remembering it.

              Their words are available on the topic and ada could easily refute them.

      Correct. Nevertheless the neopronouns incident was something of a catalyst; all the “differences” had to do with trans issues in some way, and it would be amiss of me not to point out the biggest moment that made 196 come out in support of Ada and Blahaj.

      Their other “differences” are also bogus in my opinion.
