This is my first time here. I do not abide thought policing. Fuck Reddit, fuck Spez.
Me too, fck reddit, it’s no longer a board for broad discussions from all view points but instead an echo chamber of moderators curating their own narrative.
Where have you been the last DECADE?
The regime intervened from the time Reddit exploded and it became a too important medium to let exist uncontrolled.

Same as they did before:

Looks like lot of people are mad bcs now also their other side of the US regime is being targeted.
Not a peep from them when Reddit furiously removed and banned mild criticism of the Palestinian genocide, same for other topics.
I have a lot of questions about the f people complaining now.
its thier OVERPOLICING that was the problem, it wouldve been fine if all they did was ban actual BOTS, you know the propaganda ones, but nope they went after everyone more aggresively than they did the above mentioned bots.
Welcome! To the good place
Uh... in the terminology of the show, Reddit would be The Good Place. (Obligatory fuck spez) 😁
That's fair, I didn't think through my joke very well lol. Honestly Lemmy is wonderful but let's face it it's kinda an eco chamber with a few trolls, so I guess it would be kinda like the fake Good Place 😅
Social media connects humans together, and all that that entails.:-)
Thank you.
don't worry, you have that here too. A lot less but still.
Only in communities though. Oh and also instances:-P. BUT, a LOT less, as you said, and more ways around it.
If you're concerned about that, you may want to join an instance with broader federation than Lemmy.world, such as Lemm.ee or Lemmy.ml.
Or one with the broadest possible federation like lemmy.sdf.org, though they are US based if that's a problem for you.
SDF does not defederate. The blocklist is empty. And it's small enough and chill enough that it's unlikely to get blocked by other instances much.
They're a non-profit that's older than the web and offers a variety of network and retrocomputing services including most famously a public access Unix server. They started as a dialup anime BBS.
Yep, that also works. Is CSAM blocked by sdf? I presume not if the blocklist is literally empty, but I'm not sure if that counts.
Blocklist is literally empty.
They federate with everyone, including the insufferable right wingers, the insufferable tankies, and the people who draw loli (I think there's only one lemmy instance still active that allows loli and it's the radqueer one, and it's tiny enough you don't notice it unless you go looking for it). Most of the insufferable right wingers have also closed their respective instances.
If their mastodon instance is any comparison, it still federate with everyone including the instances that post loli. I suspect if an instance were posting stuff illegal in the US that would be grounds for SDF to defederate for legal reasons, but 1A protections are broader than speech protections in most of the rest of the world.
You can always block the community or even the entire instance of anyone you don't want to see.
