FediOnFire, a Fediverse project similar to Firesky, which offers an IRC-like view of the global firehose, has shut down after a misunderstanding led to community backlash.

If you read the article, it really makes the fediverse look like a shithole. Someone on here uploaded csam to take down a project they didnt like. Wtf?

The fediverse is "the internet". Like, in conception, it's taking everything that's publicly available on the internet and making it auto-mirrorable-at-request.

So yes, on some fundamental level, it's a shit show. Because the internet is the worst of us.
