This whole comment is the reason Lemmy won't take off

What exactly is the reason? That Nazis are not allowed? You seriously think not allowing Nazis on the platform will kill it?

I'm worried about that. And every time, they either mention nazis as an excuse, or suggest creating your own instance. I think fragmentation of users and content is only going to promote centralized platforms.

People have been "worried about that" for the Fediverse for years. It hasn't stopped it growing.

The main question is "what is the alternative?". The only alternatives are corporate social media (e.g. Reddit), where you're even more at the mercy of the admins, or some kind of peer to peer approach which may take off one day, but hasn't really got going yet.
