Wow a post on lemmy denouncing the CCPs actions instead of denying them or even trying to justify them? Thats rare
I plan on actively posting to counter the constant barrage of tankie propaganda that is very clearly an issue here. Misinformation is a very real issue that we face in our society and unless we actually do something about it, it will only continue to get worse.
@Senokir @Solaris1789 I hope they don't ban you
If this was reddit i'd be concerned but there isnt any censorship here i know of
@Solaris1789 Didn't the #Lemmy software literally use to have a hardcoded blocklist of words it wouldn't let you use?
By words you mean slurs?
@raresbears Yeah, although there were some other words that were banned as well IIRC
There were words like "sl**" that where normal words in Danish or something like that, which caused issues with multi language stuff, that's why it was removed.
@gary_host_laptop In any case, I'm not salty about it, because it's now configurable (which it always should have been IMHO), just using it as an example to point out the bias and pro-censorship leanings of those running the #Lemmy software project, who I believe are also running lemmy.ml unless something changed recently
"Bias" is such a negatively loaded word. Use Anti-Nazi-bias instead.
@m532 lollll 😂😂😂
No.
