Most people don’t care about decentralization, they just want a place where everyone they disagree with is banned. That’s why the left LOVED twitter pre-musk buyout, and then hated it since. That’s why the right love truth social, cause there are no left people there. Now that reddit doesn’t allow just outright death threats and calls for violence against people they hate, the left who love it are now claiming it’s a “right leaning” platform and looking for other places.

You had me at first, but you lost me here. "reddit doesn’t allow just outright death threats and calls for violence" is not a correct description of what's going on over there and consequently the rest of that sentence is nonsense, just like the one-dimensional politicizing.

Some of us just want a place with zero bans and where unless you break the law with your speech, zero censorship and moderation.

Sure, "some" certainly want that, but that's not the point of the fedi/lemmiverse and you know it. You took a very loooong breath to get to this in the end, even making it political along the way. Some people will upvote you only because they didn't take the time to finish reading.

Also - the law is different in different countries, and the fediverse is global. "Unless you break the law with your speech" really isn't the point you think it is.

What in your opinion is going on at Reddit right now?

I mentioned politics explicitly. I didn’t hide that. I mentioned it because politics has taken over almost all social media, especially Reddit and Lemmy.
