You can make your own Lemmy iinstance and be your own censorship police, that’s the difference. Thats NOT an option on Reddit.

Hell, you don’t even have to be on Lemmy, Mastodon, any if the Bins etc can interact bacause they alo use ActivityPub.

There are plethora of instances people don’t federate with becase they don’t agree with them, that’s how it SHOULD be.
