It’s a good thing the disc is ringed with water, then walled with ice. And surrounded by a carbon-crystalline structure similar but stronger than diamond. And guarded by spiders.

Now imagine that chaos, but everyone is running their own server. There are already posts and replies that won’t accept my votes.

Who’s a bad actor? Liberals? Conservatives? Who gets to decide who the bad actor is?

Lemmy needs to allow Server-managers to defederate other servers due to obviously illegal material. And Lemmy needs to allow Users to block or ignore servers just due to any number of reasons. But the decision should be left to the user.

I’m 100% anti-censorship, and if a Server is going to be run that way there needs to be a way for existing users and new users to know that. And that’s the problem because a lot of new users are already stressed at picking a server.

Still not the point.

Everyone missing the point because the example is “Nazis”. It doesn’t matter what it is, I don’t want someone else deciding what I can see. Unless it causes legal problems for the server, don’t censor me.

Individual servers isn’t the quick answer everyone seems to think it is.

Everyone here says to run your own server, as if that’s the mindset that’s going to bring in users and increase the popularity of federation. A little short-sighted.

Yes, exactly like Reddit does. How does a federated system manage when everyone is required to run their own server to avoid censorship?

Nazis aren’t the point. Censorship is. Hard to see how a community that requires an individual federated server for everyone to avoid censorship is going to eventually come close to the popularity of Reddit.
