I liked Saidit, because all are welcomed here, no matter the views.

I would say either keep pushing those social media platforms and make accounts/voice your opinions regardless of what Reddit/Twitter/FB etc may do(ex. Ban you, remove your posts, etc) OR you can use alternatives to it.

Instead of Reddit, use Saidit. Instead of Twitter, use Parler. Instead of Facebook use Friendica or Mastodon. These are open source alternatives and freedom of speech(at least with Parler it is, I'm not sure of Friendica or Mastodon).

I do agree that it's frustrating and stupid in the first place that we're forced to use alternatives, but I'm glad I don't give them my support for their crooked rules/policies.

Edit: Nevermind on Parler, it sounds like they're basically like Twitter with censoring except it's right leaning whereas Twitter is left leaning. Neither are neutral, and I don't like that.

parler should be dead to us. please only recommend mastodon, pleroma, or any other fediverse application in place of any kind of microblogging service. and don't forget about peertube which is also fediverse.

What happened to Parler? Do they censor too?

Apparently the Capitol riot was organized through Parler. I also heard they censor non-conservative views, but I could be wrong. I haven't used it.

Ohhhhh Parler sounds like a right leaning twitter pretty much(e.g. still censoring views they don't like). That's boring. Nevermind on recommending them then. I wasn't sure if mastodon censors views too or has freedom of speech. I'll have to look into that too. I heard it was a nice platform.

I haven't even heard of mastodon, but I'll check it out too.
