Hello, is there any social media on this planet that does not ban people for things that are completely legal in all of the European legal systems?
Or is the fediverse the best choice because even though if moderators guide public opinion on the mainstream instances, people can still go to a smaller instance for refuge.
That’s the beauty of the Fediverse. You can host your own instance and do whatever you want. But be prepared to be defederated.
I’m looking for a place like r/capitalismvsocialism or r/purplepilldebate
Place where people communicate with eachother and nobody gets banned.
I’m quite sick of bubbles. Everyone just sticking with like minded people and removing the rest.
Generally speaking, I’ve found Lemmy to be far less accepting of different viewpoints than either Twitter or Reddit in their heyday. The echo chamber is extremely strong here, even though the “correct” narrative is different.
I vote left wing, but left wingers in general are less accepting of freedom of expression. That’s my experience.
Why not start your own Lemmy instance? If people are interested into that, they’ll join.
How complex is this? And how much does it cost per month to host your own instance?
There’s a reason they’re called ‘communities’ on Lemmy. What you see as a bubble, other see as a place of refuge where they’re not going to be attacked by people ‘just asking questions’.
Can’t say that I share the sentiment of those people. I haven’t blocked anyone in my entire life.
Well @Leraje, that’s exactely what has happend to me. I asked a simple question in another community and get bashed by some people just like you would expect on some other social. Then I said: “I’m out of here” and I unsubscribed and blocked the community. Just to say that there are dipheads here too.
You’re probably better off on a mastodon instance rather than lemmy
I think Discord is pretty lenient on everything. They’re an US company though. Also Telegram, that’s what all the conspiracy theorists use, I think they don’t moderate a lot. That one is founded by Russians, and registered on the British Virgin islands.
I think they both technically fit your requirements, but I wouldn’t recommend any of them. You can also use traditional internet forums or the Fediverse. They’re all moderated by the people themselves. With varying rules on what you’re allowed to post.
I mean if you just want to discuss politics, society and philosophy, without spreading hate and misinformation… You’d be welcome here, we do those kinds of things on Lemmy.
Really? Are you sure this isn’t just a restriction for people who download the app from the Apple store, or who live in islamic countries? The TOS they display to me specifically mention illegal pornographic content. But I’ve never used it, so I don’t really know.
It might have started with Apple, but basically now they continuously take down public groups that contain sexual content, as soon as they find them. Of course I’m sure it’s a losing game of wackamole…
