Came here from the post on /r/steinbach.
I like the fact that Steinbach has a page on Lemmy now, but I'm curious about your specific phrasing about free speech which to me sounds like it could be a dog whistle to allow hateful comments.
What was your intention with creating this community here?
Hi, my intention is to not have a moderator who continuously removes posts for dumb reasons. If someone says something I don't like I can rebut it, ignore it or accept it. I have choices.
My focus is on Steinbach and area, any topic is cool but if someone has a hateful opinion and gets stupid then ya, moderation is useful. But dumb shit like body doesn't match title or nitpicky things like that aren't a concern.
Ok it's a shame we need to find an alternative but the stupidity of the reddit rules and moderators is not fun. Basically if you don't agree with something, ignore it. Remember to keep it local.
