I don't like feeling like it's a gated community.
It gives me gross.
I completely understand kicking out spambots and bad actors, but I want to be able to look around and explore right away. Not wait and see if I get approved without any idea of how long it might take.
On the internet, even a day is too long and I'll go find something else.
There have been a number of platforms in the past where you couldn't join without an invite. No thanks. Exclusive clubs are not my jam.

From the luddite normie perspective.
I feel like people are more discouraged by extra hoops than spammers.
Sure, spammers will take the path of least resistance, but why profile everyone when the bad actors are going to show you who they are anyway?
I feel like it's behavior that needs to be monitored. Not access.
