I wonder how people deal with a situation where they build a platform like this and it gets adopted by e.g. political group opposing current regime in their country. A friend of mind built a pretty nice platform, until these groups started using it. He just didn't want to end up in the ditch somewhere so he closed the platform. The money from ads wouldn't even pay for servers, not to mention legal aid or hiring staff to deal with "unwanted" content. Even if you build an open source platform that anyone can self host, you can still run a risk someone being upset about it, that you are making it "easy" for certain groups to spread their propaganda. It feels like today it is a too risky water to dip toes into.
