It's the same thing with the old reddit alternatives. Very few people are actually going to bother purely for the sake of principles, so the alternatives end up flooded with the ones that are forced to alternatives for good reasons.

If the mainstream Internet banned "dissidents" I believe such things would have more uptake by other types of users.

The threadiverse (Lemmy/Kbin), which recently became popular due to the Reddit API protests, is pretty healthy.

Of course, there are some servers catering to 'dissidents' (e.g. Lemmygrad, Exploding Heads), but it's easy enough to avoid those communities.
