Any Free speech, censorship resistant lemmy, mastodon and fediverse altrnatives ?
Hi
I am looking for projects of links agregators or micro blogs, that don't rely on centralized servers and especially no mods. I've had it with mod's power trips. and how personal biases affect heavy moderation.
I want to try something with no governance, maybe p2p, and with better transparency than lemmy.
I'm not sure, but in my opinion, moderation is necessary. Any network without moderation will be flooded with Nazis and pedophiles. I don't think you'll have a good time.
At this point I am disappointed with every other internet model that came out so far. and I don't think that moderation has been a good addition, I can see the need for it if you are building a community around your own persona, like a streamer or influencer fandom. but for things like politcs and economies and stuff it just turns into echo chambers.
Host your own fediverse (Lemmy/Mastodon) instance. See who defederates from you.
No this federation experiment is at the end for me.
I don't believe in the federation model anymore. I was looking for a p2p protocol like a big bitorrent swarm, something more decentralized where no one has power over the discussions. I want to filter the content I want to consume. I dont't need someone else to decide what I should or should not read. I was hoping for an open network where every node have the same leverage and you only mod your own feed.
What you look for seems to be Nostr
I'm afraid open federated protocols are a censorship resistant as you're going to get.
If you find a instance or a moderator on Lemmy is insufferable, you can start a new community or a new instance, lemmy is so small right now, basically everybody sees every new post every day. You make a new community, you make a new post, and people will see it.
Exactly that. Each instances has it's own rules and as such, you can make your own on your own instance. Just don't be surprised that some instances block you for not abliging to their standards, as they also control their own federation, like each individual instances.
Nostr
It's a ghost town so not really fun/useful.
omg! that has a cli client
Thanks, at least this is a helpful response, Will check it out!
Sounds an awful lot like you're trying to find illegal shit and have plausible deniability that "that's not what I was looking for, officer! I swear! Someone just posted it on their own!"
According to your handle, it might be you who is intersted in that sort of shit, but you are instead reflecting it on others.
Give a try to ZeroNet
Isn't ZeroNet a dead archived project ?
Might be worth checking out Aether. Multiple dealbreakers for me though.
Sorry, not gonna get much help here, people here like censorship and mods banning trans people for "leaking conversations." Free speech is generally seen as being for Nazis, despite the nazis actually hating free speech just as much as they do but for different reasons.
Basically your only option is imageboards like 4chan and 8kun (or whatever 8chan rebranded to.) 420chan is dead, so is 7chan iirc, and 2chan is still Japanese.
Or I guess there's always good ol' usenet.
