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.
Reddit censorship is much worse than that. Buncha people get banned for absolutely no reason at all, like some entire subreddits (I’m not talking about r/SuperStraight) got banned because their users said they don’t want to date trans people etc.
Sad thing is “bigot” and “bigoted” are such broad terms that they can essentially be extended to mean anything.
