Antis as NIMBYs

I recall listening to a story from one of those drama channels, about a Discord server where the mods didn't ban a person who was openly a MAP. The story didn't mention the MAP harassing anyone, posting lolicon, or anything like that. However the commentator still acted like merely having a MAP on the server was some sort of big deal. Everywhere you might go, people find a reason for you not to be there, and if you try to form your own spaces (like Virped) people still don't want it to exist.
Are there any online communities that are YIMBYs? i.e. they get that MAPs have to go somewhere, so they accept their presence?

I don't know of any. But I think finding such spaces is definitely part of the move forward.

I think that us MAPS should have our own server. Isn't that what Fediverse does? If we had our own servers then nobody could kick us off.

I'm still not entirely sure what the Fediverse is, or how it works.

Here is some information on Fediverse.
