    I saw one arts instance has defederated on the grounds that the BBC is a transphobic organisation. I would personally dispute that.

    I think those people need to realise this is a massive step up for the fediverse. The BBC literally has global reach.

      Eh, the BBC has definitely been involved in spreading transphobia.

      I still think their joining the Fediverse is a good thing for the adoption of decentralised social media.

      Both of those things can be true.
