A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I don't think so. If people leave and the only reputation you'd hear about the platform is that it's full of shit like that, you won't have any reason to start an account in the first place, since there's no "normal" content with which they'd first hook you in, before they can slowly start changing your views.
If the serious content remains, you'll get people signing up for that content, only to be slowly manipulated into whatever The Algorithm feels will drive the engagement (which is probably fascism). If there's nothing in the first place, you don't have that hook.
Let it die.
