[Skavau, on Piefed and Lemmy] They're not free speech zones though. Assuming that's what you want. Most instances will have specific rules.

Even if the OOP wants that "freeze peach", that boils down to "waaah! I want to scream sluurs! And how much ~~of a social failure I am~~ I hate marginalised groups!", it would be perfectly possible to create a Piefed or Lemmy instance to host it. So even in that case the Fediverse would be an option...

...as long as the person doesn't feel entitled to be heard by people who don't want to hear their shit, you know? Because, as soon as someone created such instance, most other instances would (IMO correctly) defederate it.

I was operating on the assumption they did indeed want a muh free speech zone. Not endorsing their ideas. Just didn't think it might be a good idea for them to be misled.

No worries - the way you phrased kind of suggests you weren't endorsing it. I mentioned your username mostly as a reference to which comment I was talking about.

Yeah, nine times out of ten someone who wants "free speech" on the web means they want to force others to listen.

I'm a little suspicious when people are asking for a platform with free speech and anonymity with no other details.

That often translates to "Where can I tell slurs and spread hatred without repercussions?"

Hopefully I'm just being cynical.

The nice thing about Fedi is that slur-loving people can have their space that allows slurs, but people who don't want slurs can de-federate.

I miss when it used to mean "I want to find and share porn and piracy without worrying about being found out".
