“I can’t post racist, sexist, homophobic and transphobic bullshit to Lemmy without getting banned? CENSORSHIP! WE GOT CENSORSHIP OVER HERE!” -OP probably
each instance and community has their own policy. you have to either follow it or if you disagree, you’re free to create your own. you can’t do that in Facebook or whatever. so no, just because a random post was removed from a certain instance, it doesn’t mean Lemmy is censored at all.
Moderation has always been required on the net. It is only a question by whom and for whom. To participate in any social setting either IRL or on the net, you need to conform to the expectations of that community. If you choose to do otherwise then you can expect consequences. What is shocking about this?
Isn’t one of the chief selling points of the Fediverse that you can’t be censored because there’s always some instance that will welcome you? Another USP is that the rest of us don’t have to read it if we don’t want to.
You get freedom of speech and we get freedom from that speech (assuming it’s objectionable, and I have yet to see one of these posts where some complains about being stopped from posting funny cat memes).
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !privacyguides@lemmy.one

Originally OP was from kerala.party, I think their accounts were banned from kerala.party.
EDIT :
As I thought, there were complaints regarding the OP

Indeed - we need better moderating tools asap. I believe there’s a Lemmy fork working on that.
The developers of lemmy are more useless than a chocolate teapot
Oh yes, mod tools for lemmy are hot garbage
You can always host your own instance as well
Yeah! I will host my own instance with blackjack and hookers!
Cry more, snowflake. People not wanting to put up with cryptofascist bullshit isn’t censorship, it’s karma bitch.
Didn’t read OP, what does this have to do with crypto?
Crypto- as a prefix (like in this case) generally means “secret”. Ergo, cryptofascist = “secret fascist”.
I do get where the confusion comes from, though.
Alright, thank you.
