I certainly have nostalgia for the Miiverse, but honestly part of the charm was the reason why it also sucked and fell apart: it being Nintendo’s attempt at having social media for children, completely contained within itself and insanely moderated. If anyone else tried that, it would just be another fan community. The cringe and wackiness of it all set it apart, for better or worse.
I joined kbin recently and I’m kind of concerned about the implications of this. I don’t support those posts at all, but who gets to say what’s worth banning and what not? Wouldn’t that go against the decentralized nature of the site? Or is it the specific instance that magazine is on that has the authority to ban what’s inside? How does all of this work?
Edit: my bad, I got kbin and kbin.social mixed up. Noob mistake.
