Comment on Why Decentralized Social Media Matters
TORFdot0@lemmy.world 1 day agoIf you want a place with no bans, then start up your own instance. Nobody can ban you. Sure they could defederate from you, but they couldn’t ban you.
If you want a platform that can’t ban anyone AND can’t block anyone, well you could make your own platform but I wouldn’t expect many to join you because nobody wants that.
We have the freedom to say what we want. We don’t have the freedom to force people to hear it though.

The point is that everyone else can still ban you. I’m not sure you even understood my original post if that’s your response.
Here we don’t have the freedom to say why we want, because you’ll be banned instantly for saying many things that aren’t even controversial unless you’re deep inside one political side.

I haven’t had that experience here. I’ve had some unpleasant dustups with some leftists here but beyond having comments removed for being pro capitalist by .ml admins, I haven’t had any issues with moderation. Sure I’ve been heavily downvoted but I’ve never gotten banned.
