Somehow, I feel like the federated network is still centralized, because there is still censorship; it's just distributed across more servers.
I mean, it definitely gives users more rights to free speech, and I'm not worried about privacy issues. However, the removal of content and the banning of accounts are things that are diminishing my passion for sharing my thoughts publicly(on reddit).
I just dont want this happened on here but I am seeing some...
Your right to choose is the same as everybody else's right to choose. You can decide to post something, and others can decide they don't want to see it. Decentralized just means there is no one entity to make those decisions for you.
