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.

My instance doesn’t seem to have any censorship as far as I can tell, but despite what terminally online people would expect, it’s not overrun by Nazis.

I run my instance so I am perfectly happy with the level of censorship.

Said instance is narrowly focused on free software and free culture issues, so unrelated politics would be off-topic. That said there is a fairly bog standard code of conduct prohibiting bigotry, nazism and the like.

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)

It works. One day I even tried to piss a mod off and he told me I could leave, and he didn't care if I did.

So I said,... "based, I'm staying."

No one on sh.itjust.works has ever thrown a hissy fit over any of my arguments or stopped me from scorched-earthing a conservative, so they're a-ok by me!

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.

We don't allow (almost) any kind of political discussion in the group I moderate. However, I've never had to take any mod actions.

[-] Nemo@slrpnk.net 1 points 5 days ago

My instance is great. I have no complaints and seen no censorship.

Lemmy.nz is amazing, the big instances are all much worse.

Supper happy with lemmy.word

You can actually have a conversation there without the whole thing being taken over by people who write like they are edgy 14 year old American tankies.

Okay with it.

Mostly they are CSAM instances being blocked, nazi shit, and tankies. I don't like seeing those anyways.

You might consider crossposting this to similar communities on other instances. .ml has quite the reputation for censorship, so that's definitely going to shape the responses you get here.

Mine's cool.

Yours otoh will ban you for political disagreements (read: supporting the authoritarian states they don't like OR not supporting the authoritarian states they do like) and censors the word "bitch," which is why I left the second new instances popped up. As an anti-any-authoritarian who considers that a bitchin' opinion it's not the place for me.
