I am sorry but I also think this is kinda dumb.

It was like a social media website, people looked for attention and money, spread falsehoods and several users were dogmatic and had the wrong opinion.

lol

Of course it's totally fine they left. Maybe this shows that not every project/software project/activist team needs a social media account, just those who have the resources and actually like using it. But they could have known this before joining imo.

They must have had a very different experience from me if they saw people seeking attention and money on Mastodon... To be fair, mastodon is a social media thing so it's weird that criticise it for being what it is.
