      Well said, I actually got dinged a lot from automods using this word “kill” in various context for example one I remember well: “The Iranian government is killing people and wondering why they fight back?!” And DING I get whacked by the automod again for using a bad word. I mean I don‘t mind moderation, but that was so weird I had to self censor myself like “The Iranian government is acting in ways that end people‘s lives and wondering why they fight back?!” to get my comment posted. What a pain.

      Yes, I mean there will be limits and our admins named some but overall it seems way more free.

      Likely because it’s federated instances and each specialises in something.
