I'm genuinely curious, looking to move from Reddit due to heavy-handed mod abuse and the extreme leftist bias of virtually all the big subreddits. Is Lemmy going to be a place where free speech is honored, or will conservatives always get the boot like on Reddit? I'm not talking about hate speech or calls for violence, I'm just as against that as the next person. But I'd like to know I'm not going to get banned because my opinion differed from that of a mod.

If it stinks of shit everywhere you go then maybe it's time to look under your shoe? 🤔
While there's value in conservative thought most people who subscribe to it don't know how to exercise it.
You don't understand Lemmy. Feel free to host your own instance with your conservatives views. It will likely get defederated by other instances, but nobody's stopping you.
That was 3 years ago, I don't think they're gonna see this.
Haha, post age is a constant reminder that the Fediverse wasn't getting much action for a long time. I don't even know how many replies I've posted then noticed the age.
The "active" and "hot" feeds are kind of broken. Clearly configured with the lower post volume in mind. I suggest top>day until it's fixed.
Thanks for the tip! I have wondered why it seems like I keep hitting the same posts
The latest version of lemmy also added top 12h, 6h and 1h but the apps haven't see to implemented it yet.
As long as you're not hateful in the way you show it, conservatism is not always inherently evil. Just sadly the further you go to the right the more hateful you become to the rest of the world.
Not all conservatives are bad. But the kind that spout MAGA and long for Boris' return are usually in that camp.
I feel like most lemmy admins (at least on sh.itjust.works, from what I can tell) are quite lenient as long as what you office isn't winning towards harming or hating on another group of people
(Just to clarify to others, I am not a conservative, I'm very left leaning socially with some authoritarian views on certain governmental issues. But I also understand that not all conservatives are our enemy, we talk about them always ending up in echo chambers and ending up being more radicalised by doing so. I also don't want the left to start creating their own echo chambers by proxy. Debating is very productive in my opinion, you learn more about your own arguments and whether or not deep down if you still feel that way, while also seeing the point of view from the other side which in turn can often shed light on the real issue all of it stems from. Depending on the context of the debate obviously)
Make your own echo chamber idiot 😎😎😎
Don't conservatives have an entire subreddit all to themselves that no one else can post in?
