    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

      Censorship of CCP criticism would be in the modlog if it were true. I’ve only been here a couple weeks but the only things I see the admins refuse to tolerate are racism, homophobia, and hate speech in general. They don’t allow porn but that has more to do with practical challenges than any (expressed) problem with other people wanting it.

          Wow - thank you for sharing that. There are aspects of this instance I don’t love, but banning over shadow rules is enough for me to consider just going elsewhere.
