This concern is very easily addressed by using a different platform. Nobody is forcing you to use Lemmy, so if this doesn't appeal to you then feel free to use reddit, Voat, or any other platform that fits your values. The amount of censorship Lemmy has is not your problem.
Yes I get that and I do use other platforms I am genuinely trying to understand the motivations behind lemmy. There is now a lot of platforms doing their own development, many open source and this seems wasteful. Lemmy interests me. I am wondering if like one of my favorite platforms saidit should migrate to it? Should I advocate this to magnora7 and d3rr? I know d3rr is interested in lemmy.
