Wait, how is the GDPR applicable here? I thought the GDPR was just about data protection...
GDPR is absolutely not applicable here. Their platform, their rules when it comes to what people can and can't post (with the exception of personal information, that is covered by GDPR). If tomorrow they decide that commenting the word "Banana" is a bannable offence, they're well within their rights.
All the more reason that federation is necessary in modern social media.
My bad, messed that up, edited my comment
