I’m all for it, but what kicked it off?

    I used it that way for years. It’s better for memes than fediverse or Reddit, except for two things: 1 occasionally the user base freaks the fuck out and starts spamming the same thing, like this. I don’t like Nazis, but that also means I don’t want literally everything on my funny picture site to be about keeping them out. 2 increasingly all the popular stuff isn’t memes at all, but shitting on trump and musk. See point 1.

    Then they blocked the UK because they didn’t want to put an age field on their registration form (note this is not to do with age verification)

      Doesnt sound all that different from here especially on #1, case in point beans, jeans and more recently corn for some reason
