This seems to be becoming the hot topic, the elephant in the chatroom - the balance between censorship / freedom of speech on lemmy. There are solid arguments for both ways, and good compromises too.
IMO the FAQ makes it quite clear what the devs have built here, and why. But recent discussions, arguments, make it clear that a lot of the most vocal users object to it.
I’m very curious. Many active users feel this way? Please vote using the up arrows in the comments.
Can you think of some way to improve that?
This is a post about a technical way to encourage better discussions, so that would fit in here.
Sadly I think that would mean we need to do away with the entire up/downvote system, since that allows the majority to silence the (right now) minority. And because people see no one who agrees with them, they leave, so the original majority always remains that.
