A place where no one is policing what people can say? Sign me up!
Censorship only applies to people you dont like saying things you dont like. Eventually it'll be turned on you.
Some things should be deleted because they are bad for the community as a whole. Harassment, threats, doxxing, calls for violence. You honestly wouldn't want someone to delete a post with "@[email protected] lives at XXX. Let's get together and beat him to death"? And if that doesn't faze you I can tell you that most people are not like that. So the place you are imagining would be a very small community very fast. Apart from that there is the problem of illegal content and defederation.
Makes me wonder what you want to say or read that gets censored.
