Nope definitely not why would I do that to myself
this will force us humans to go actually outside, make friends, form deep social relationship, and build lasting, resilient communities
There is no chance it goes that way, how is talking to people outside even an option for someone used to just being on the internet?

It used to be a better place for arguments
I think it's actually a serious problem if the most prominent places for discussion are heavily censored
IMO for some people arguing is a form of intimacy
