I made PeerTube and Mastadon accounts today out of curiosity and was generally impressed. Mastodon especially is quite usable (though obviously many fewer users than Twitter), the interface is as good as Twitter (better if you count not spamming you to login). I posted about my open source project and other random stuff and got several thought out, kind, non-spam replies with a new account. I imagine this is because…

Would you be willing to talk about what you have for a backend for the PeerTube instance?

Is it ideological activism to enforce the terms of service which prohibit the incitement of violence?

To directly answer your question, I would say no - however it is ideological activism to only enforce those ToS for specific services. The #killallmen hashtag has trended more than once on twitter, for example.

Agreed. Twitter should enforce this more consistently.

Nothing stops the Trump org from doing what InfoWarz does and sign up with Akamai and Lumen/Centurylink/Level 3 for their server hosting and CDN.

Until they ban them too.

If the whole world is against you, maybe you are doing something wrong

You can’t label everything you disagree with as extremism. Advocate for the destruction of Israel on the basis that the Muslim god said so? That’s extremism. Holding different political views? That’s part of being a healthy and diverse society. I wish Americans would grow up and learn to coexist.

Sure, but no one has actually tried to kill all men. They didn't do this latest action until after people were actually killed by the violence incited.

I like PeerTube, but the really important part of the puzzle is the advertiser network. What makes YouTube special is that Google takes care of the advertising side of things and makes it easy for people to monetise. If Silicon Valley continues to drift into ideological activism, at some point a hugely profitable opportunity to set up a new advertising network develops.

How is it going to be a profitable opportunity? No brand wants to be associated with the content that is being blocked, so there is no advertiser demand for alternative platforms.

I would suggest in this specific incidence they are enforcing it very consistently in that they aren't punishing anyone for inciting that particular type of violence.

Random side note, what if they have a mass-marketed "echo-like" device that is to form a meshnet that's not part of the regular internet. Would it happen? I get it's not like a trans atlantic line connecting continents and bandwidth etc... but other than jamming it would be "free". The other paranoia is hardware backdoor/software itself eg. AES encryption... seems overkill

Then you'd have to talk to your neighbors, who as we can see on Best of Nextdoor are not that fun to be on an internet forum with.
