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.
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’.
There’s a study somewhere that states humans were never meant to have communities above a few hundred, and the bigger we grew the more we lost. I for one am happy with leaving some folk sad they’re not allowed back in when they break community rules.
Can’t say that I share the sentiment of those people. I haven’t blocked anyone in my entire life.
Are you a white cis male?
yep, my family has been living here in Belgium for a very long time.
Why not start your own Lemmy instance? If people are interested into that, they’ll join.
Sure
How complex is this? And how much does it cost per month to host your own instance?
Yee, banning people who have a reason to look the way they do, will make the world a worse place. Soon the right activities bubble will burst
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.
what if the defederated instances make a federation of their own? hmm
Nice architecture. Isn’t it?
