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.

      Never used Aether because it needs a client to work. It’s interesting that it works in p2p. How’s your experience?

        It works fine. A bit heavy on cpu tho. Theres a big issue with Aether. The content gets flushed out every 6 months. Terrible idea.

          I thought the excluded content was just on the main instance. Maybe the software could be forked.
