I'm sorry but Fosstodon lost all of my respect with their 'English only' rule

Personally I'd never join such an instance, but I think it's completely understandable for admins to do so since it makes moderation a lot more manageable.

They revoked the "English only" rule in August. Source.

I laugh so hard when people write something like this. I wonder in what world the lunatic lives that this is what makes them LOSE ALL HIS RESPECT.

Maybe somebody who knows that a ton of people don't speak English and such a rule makes FOSS look bad
