■ 🕑 4. Agree, but how do you define gatekeeping?
   I think you make good points, but how do you define gatekeeping? 
   Because using it as a clutch can make communities stale.
   It'll just be old heads patting each other's back until death
   Sure you can encourage people how to act and discourage bad behaviours 
   But I view that more as guidance rather than gatekeeping.
   
   I think a focus on gatekeeping is good for communities that want to
   stay niche. Otherwise you end up with the citizen police of online.
   
   That being said the strange world/heyuri thing linked here is
   a good example of gatekeeping. I love how they discourage wojaks
   and oomer talk. More sites should do that.
   
   As for what gyudon_addict said, I think having a mix of anon and 
   pseudo users encourages healthy diversity. Focus on one too much
   and either you get toxic hellholes or egoboo central.
   
   For the scaling thing, I agree. It's best that anonymous places 
   don't get bloated so there's nothing left but bad shitposts.
   It's best to spread other sites and encourage people find a 
   space for them instead of trying to jam everyone in one location
