π¬π§ It is a funny coincidence that after my several criticism of #pixelfed and posting on my pixelfed account following screenshot, some minutes later my account from pixelfed did disappear. Another proof that the service and its author are just immature as hell. And its fine, great job @welshpixie on detecting the toxic people. The thing is that the guy had to react very emotionally without even having proper mechanism in place - I am still logged to the platform but nothing works ;) Adeu.

We have loads of trans people (Dansup made a transphobic post too) and Black folk on .art. We promise them a safe community, and our blocks reflect that. Someone who repeatedly uses AAVE despite being told by Black people that it's cultural appropriation and asked to stop, is doing it deliberately - he made a choice to be deliberately racist. We block racists, we block transphobes.
