    1. Almost every instance will almost certainly filter illegal content in their respective jurisdictions, and those that don’t might not be around for long.
    2. There is a modlog. Just click on it, and you will see what gets removed.

    What is censorship for you? I mean do you want to have an instance that deletes nothing?

          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 “@carrot@sh.itjust.works 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.

    BeeHaw will supposedly censor what they deem to be “hate speech”

    I’ve heard reports about lemmy.ml censoring criticism of the CCP. how true this is i don’t know. One of the devs apparently also runs Lemmygrad
