How do you feel about the level of censorship in your current instance ? (lemmy.ml)

Since Lemmy is federated, and the admins of each instance choose what’s allowed and what’s not in their own instance.

How do you feel about what’s allowed and what’s not in your current instance ?

I’ll start: I’ve read people complaining about my instance admins, but I haven’t experienced nor seen anything I specifically disagree with.

And I’ve read things they wrote that I absolutely agree with, like not federating with Meta under any circumstances.

So for now, I’m happy with it. If I get banned randomly, I don’t think I’d go to a different instance, though. I’d probably just stop visiting Lemmy altogether.

I am very happy with feddit.org . I have not seen an issue with overmoderation, but I have also not seen a problem with spam or trolling. I believe hexbear is (rightfully so) defederated but other then that i did not notice any defederations.

The do not allow pornography which I support as you would essentially be hosting it yourself when it is federated which can become icky quickly. But I think this is a bit of a difference to other instances.

The instance also has a nice little community which is active enough to not be boring but small enough to feel like a community (might also be because of having a common language)

Sh.itjust.works has been brilliant, tbh.

High uptime, reasonable admins.

Very happy with it

I've had some disagreements with admins of my instance and mods of some communities here and I'm yet to be banned. So, it's alright I suppose. Although I must say that I'm on the same general side of the political spectrum as the admins.

I'm on world. Fuck the admins of world.

I am the only (AFAIK) Italian instance and pretty happy. No censorship.

I don't know how people from Lemmy.world stand it, honestly.
