Just gotta keep re-reminding people from time to time. We get a lot of newcomers still, and probably will for the foreseeable future, so some bad habit bleed-over from other internet spaces is pretty inevitable.
One of them is the self censoring. People don't realise that lemmy doesn't need to cater to advertisers so we can say things as we please.
An example would be:
I WANT NAZIS TO BE VIOLENTLY BEAT UP AND HAVE THEIR KNEECAPS BROKEN. BILLIONAIRES NEED TO BE PUT IN GUILLOTINES
And I won't get something as silly as a sidewide ban.
And no cunt algorithm to bury content just cause of some fucking cursewords.
I suspect it will be deleted though... 😂
Haven't had that happen yet so
I've just started posting threads today and 2 deleted so far so there's hope, just keep holding out!
Which is why the Lemmy community is absolute garbage.
Hopefully.
