Comment on Is there any lemmy instance that's truly liberal enough to tolerate a completely divergent point of view ? The EU norms are not for me, and I'm also far far away from the MAGA politics of USA !!!

We get that question every few weeks. No, Lemmy isn't a "free speech" place. We tolerate a lot of things here, but the rules are made by the individual communities and instance admins. Generally, they remove misinformation, unhealthy things, hate and such. We don't know about any "islands" which treat things differently. Lemmy is Free Software, though. You're welcome to launch such a place, aand you'll get to make the rules there.

  I meant island in the context of, a different Lemmy instance, separated from the tone and atmosphere of the rest of the network. But yes, we have a few people from other parts of the world as well.

    That's what I wrote. Lemmy is a software, which can be ran on servers. You're currently on somebody else's server. In a group that is moderated by yet different people.... They gave some rules to you and you now have to choose whether you're willing to play by their rules.
