Pure curiosity:

If you left reddit or another corporate platform under the banner of not being censored by their views or beliefs, what was that?

Wait. Before we open this can of worms, I'm not at all curious about an in-depth explanation of unpopular views or opinions that are generally extremist or that most reasonable people consider extreme. More of:

I left reddit or some other because they censor...?
The lemmy community is more for me because?
I reasons my instance policies or moderators are better than the other platform is?
The other platform restricted opinions or views regarding...?

If you feel like sharing, just summarize the general idea, please no indoctrination speeches.

Oh boy...

I probably would have been here sooner had I known about it prior, but I came here because Reddit did a fucky-wucky and now the good apps don't work. Though I had been getting sick of how many people were just awful there anyway and the only other place I had known about was Tumblr, which isn't very condusive to conversation. When the announcement of the API shit happened, Lemmy kept getting mentioned (along with other sites) and it was the closest thing to Reddit that wasn't Reddit.

It not being owned by a single entity is just a happy little bonus.
