MeWe is pro free speech, you guys should check it out.

There is also Minds, but it sucks hard. It's a Twitter clone and you have to pay for anyone to even see your posts.

I think everyone here probably already knows about Gab and Parler, but both of those suck hard too in my opinion.

Also:

And decentralized federated platforms and networks we can all co-host:

  • Movim (Facebook/Messenger-like)
  • Lemmy (Reddit-like)
  • YaCy (search)
  • PeerTube (YouTube-like)
  • Mastodon
  • NextCloud
  • Diaspora
  • Friendica
  • OAuth
  • IPFS
  • TOR
  • ZeroNet
  • Open VPN
  • etc etc etc.

I don't know about all of those that you mentioned, but I know from personal experience that Lemmy is very much dominated by far-left users and admins will ban and censor people just as hard (if not worse than) Reddit.

That is true.
When have we needed far-left information?
Until a federation of the deplorables is formed it will always be mostly left.
For now there are a few, like https://Wolfballs.com

Yeah you guys are all welcome at wolfballs.com. Other instances that are anti censorship,

nrsk.no

exploding-heads.com

We are building up a decent hard to censor area on the internet. You don't have to rely on a single admin. If one pisses you off you can switch instances or host your own.

Lmao at that MeWe site:

Unlike other social networks, at MeWe we have absolutely no political agenda and no one can pay us to target you with theirs. MeWe is for law-abiding and TOS-abiding people everywhere in the world, regardless of political, ethnic, religious, sexual, and other preferences. We have a strict and clear Terms of Service protecting our members: haters, bullies, porn, spammers, bots, lawbreakers, violence inciters, etc. are prohibited.

Then in the TOS:

You may NOT:

...

Post content that is hateful, threatening, harmful, incites violence; or contains graphic or gratuitous violence.

Wow such clarity and not at all worded in a way where it can disallow basically anything they want /s

Post content that is hateful, threatening

Does soliciting random people on the internet for hugs count as threatening content?

MeWe banned me then tried to bill me monthly for a service I could not use. Beware of MeWe!!!!!

I've heard of Discord charging people for auto-renewing nitro which they can't cancel because Discord disabled their account.

Same as any site - including SaidIt and the ambiguous Pyramid of Debate and the entirely arbitrary "dragging downward" rule.
