The comment I responded to brought up the First Amendment, so I think it’s relevant to correct them.

I’m not defending corporate censorship, I’m just saying it’s not a First Amendment violation.

The First Amendment means the government can’t restrict Free Speech. The Super Bowl is a private event held on private property.

Same in Canada.

I think you’re on to something.

I also think there’s a difference in where the network effect kicks in for different types of social media. IMHO, Lemmy has just enough activity to not feel empty, and even then I wish there was more comments to interact with and more niche communities. With Pixelfed, I feel like as long as there’s enough interesting posts it makes sense for people to visit regularly.
