@ashten I agree with this take. Visibility of a problem does not mean that the problem is widespread. It’s just that we are more able to notice it. Fedi has a paedophile problem because our society has a paedophile problem. Fedi has a racism problem because our society has a racism problem. The vices and ills are much easier to publicly surface on Fedi than on other platforms because of those things you’ve mentioned.
This doesn’t preclude them from being worse than elsewhere (I would imagine that the decentralised nature may make grooming more easy to evade) but your point still stands on its own merit.
