Hi! I came here looking for an alternative to Reddit which is less of a liberal echo chamber. It looks good, even more responsive. But I wonder, how is the moderation here? Biggest problem I have with Reddit is that it is becoming increasingly impossible to have discussions about “sensitive topics”. Even if you are being civil, there is a chance you will just straight out get banned for saying something which liberals do not like. How does Lemmy compare? Thanks.
Much of the Fediverse is developed by people who are pretty left-of-center, as it is based in Free, Open-Source Software, which is itself based upon left-of-center philosophy. As another commentor mentioned, you’ll probably find some instances that are politically aligned with you but have been de-federated from much of the rest of the Fediverse for hate speech and encouraging terrorism.
However, as I mentioned exclusion is pretty directly in conflict with FOSS philosophies so, they are going to be small echo chambers and you might have but luck with proprietary platforms run by free speech absolutists.
