Things like this are literally the only viable platforms

Or maybe this is just an anti-Reddit thing

See, the problem with reddit is you can't actually be yourself (obviously within the confines of not acting like a bigoted asshole) because politically motivated mods will ban you

Certain topics are completely off the table, like how the covid shots are responsible for millions of deaths (not allowed on Youtube either, by the way; methinks all these tech execs should spend a long time in a small cell) or how conservative-leaning folks might just be ok (or how "the vast consensus is that anthropogenic climate change is a real and serious thing" in spite of actual evidence by real scientists)

Reddit for being ostentibly decentralized is in fact very very centralized

All the platforms seem to be dying anyway, Youtube (see above) is useless and you can't compete with them regardless as that scale, Reddit - Facebook's Zuckerberg may be marginally better about some things but even he's just so incredibly unlikeable

And I said politically motivated mods; but even the site, itself

It wasn't "a mod" that banned r/nonewnormal. That was a site-wide decision

That should be actionable by prison time, doing shit like that
