MODERATORS
- Promoting smaller instances, because of the volume of my posting it helps makes smaller instances more recognizable
- Making comms on fitting smaller instances (e.g. a programming comm id make on programming.dev)
- Mitigating against the imposter problem
- Better interconnecting smaller instances
Also, some accounts are imposter accounts from the aforementioned imposter problem that I had last year
Block evasion and addiction to upvotes.
Note that the dumb excuse is to promote smaller instances. Having 50 accounts doesn't do jack for that. Posting to 50 instances with one account would.
