I use a few social media platforms at the same time. I'm used to seeing the same things on each platform. That's how the internet has been for years - you read the same things on the same five sites.

To be fully transparent, Lemmy isn't at the top. I don't post much and I lurk. Sometimes I post a comment here and there.

But this past week, I'm seeing more and more interesting content in the "Everything" section of Lemmy that I didn't see in my other social media feeds. New communities and more interesting convos.

Uncertain if the fediverse has gotten a wave of new posters, some algorithm has changed, or every other social media company is sucking more and more thanks to America Team Police...

Just wanted to share my extremely limited anecdotal non-fact checked viewpoint.

Seems to be unproven https://factually.co/fact-checks/justice/was-ghislaine-maxwell-a-reddit-mod-b79f2a

Could be true, but this suggests weak evidence.

The evidence in favor is circumstantial. The account stopped posting when Maxwell was arrested. On the other hand, I cannot find the mentioned screencap from /u/Hasharin cited by Vice and Factually, in which they had a recent conversation with MaxwellHill. The screencap was mentioned in a different article in 2024. It would be really surprising if it were recent, because the account has been inactive for so long. Hasharin has mentioned the theory in three recent replies to a thread. I thought I would get a firm opinion by looking into it, but the refutation was not very specific either.
