I tried to launch a small pagebuilder way back when (before wix and friends) and the only users I had were religious zealots. It was an interesting predicament to be in, but I was shutting it down anyway so I shed no tears when I removed them all.
Interestingly where I live we have no equivelant of "Safe Harbour" laws which prevent a platform for being sued or criminally liable for content posted by users. I became acutely aware of the risk I was taking when fringe interests started showing up. Luckily no criminally fringe users had found the platform yet.
That said, count yourself lucky in America, for such laws enable a whole heap of platforms that get general use but also abused by fringe users as it is very challenging to moderate free platforms.
