They said all that about a bunch of alternative media that was banned from all money processing. Oh, you can't use the banks. Why don't you just make your own? While I don't agree with most of the things those kind of people said, I also do not agree with completely banning their speech. All that does is push them into the shadows and that's how Donald Trump gets elected.

You abandoning lemmy completely or just the instance? If the former, will you be going back to reddit or avoiding this format completely?

Lemmy and the fediverse entirely. I guess you could also say social media entirely as this was my last vestige of it.

Planning to re-join the real world and put my energy into actual positive things.

That's always admirable. Social media can be very toxic. hopefully you'll be able to stay away for good, but so much is run via social media atm that it's hard to completely disconnect.

Censorship is when you're silenced by the government.

What's your definition?

People refusing to entertain an asshole is not censorship.

Itll be sad to see you go, sir

It has never been just the government that's only in regards to the first amendment.

Well it's fucking wrong. An issue in federation I suppose.

Lemmy

(sh.itjust.works)

People refusing to entertain an asshole is not censorship. Deal with it.

It is when that person is banned from all unrelated communities. Definitely censorship.

So you're mad cuz it's not showing how much of an even bigger bigot, homophobe, and ass that you really are?

No. Just correcting you. I've been here all along. I don't give a shit.

It's a good sign no one wants you here.

"i didn't give a shit" he says while crying about not being wanted.

I don't care if I'm wanted or not. I care if a large portion of the fediverse sees fit to censor opinions based on their feelings. Fine if you're moderator on a community based around something that doesn't fit your views but it shouldn't work the same for the entire instance. And it's only really an issue because lemmy.world It's like 90% of the fediverse. If it worked like it was originally designed, there wouldn't be massive controlling interests like Lemmy.world.

Wouldn't be an issue if federation was happening with a whole bunch of tiny instances, but it's one giant and then a few other smaller ones.

Im here because I'm fucking stubborn.

I hate the Reddit app, give me back RIF and I'll abandon this place in a heartbeat. Give me a paid Reddit option to fuck the adds off and Ill take it. Ill pay $20 a month not to have to listen to you neckbeards to try and make literally every conversation about capitalism, linux or Trump.

Bunch of one note ass motherfuckers, you think I dont know the world sucks? I want some escapism for fuck sake.

sick of lemmy's shit but there's nowhere better to go?

I came here when the reddit api thing happened, and have since blocked .ml because I don't want to deal with their shit. Problem though, the .ml admins are the lemmy devs, so using lemmy at all supports .ml and their bullshit.

Where else is there? Hive is a crypto scam, and every other option I've seen suggested isn't like reddit or lemmy. I guess there's piefed, but I don't understand how that isn't just lemmy but worse/different (if someone can explain it to me please do).

Arch btw
