Where is that quoted from?

If that is Lemmy there is the Lenny fork without the auto-censored terms.

I also won't support nor tolerate censorship.

Read the rules section on that Fosstodon.org site. It appears to be run by far leftists, who specifically say there is no free speech allowed, and that both sites and users will be censored.

They have a whole list of Fosstodon sites, like gab and kiwifarms, that they've censored and blocked from access.

Ah. That's very disappointing but not surprising. I've not delved into Mastodon much. I don't know much about it except it's decentralized and federated.

Almost makes me want to make FLOSStodon.org without censorship - but there are too many problems with that. Not only would it attract the trolls and illegal content but I don't want to monitor and moderate a bunch of low effort shit. I have better things to do.

On the other hand, maybe the section of FLOSStodon they've blocked has more of the free speech and lack of censorship they abhor? Agreed on the better things to do, though.

I meant that FOSS is them. If I were to, I'd make a FLOSS version that's almost the same but with extra Libre. Enough to confuse some and maybe piss them off. Pissing them off doesn't change minds nor help in the ideology war, so meh. At best I could hope they'd read it and change their minds.
