> Well, if the alternatives get treated like the examples given up thread, that's quite an uphill battle, because you may not be able to get an ISP, payment processor, IP addresses, domain names, etc. Calling those particular sites 'alternatives' is ridiculous. There are legit competitors to the big social media sites that aren't cesspools of child porn and hate speech, and those are doing fine. Arguably the biggest up and coming competition, Tiktok, isn't being assailed on free speech grounds but over national security fears.
