People here care about the platform enough, we put that before profits and shareholder dividends.

We support free speech and free expression

We have accounts here with pictures of naturism, (shock horror naked people) but content is hidden and need to be clicked on to be viewed, text before suggests content. Users have that choice to click or not.

At the same time, by our own admission there are instances that host far right, racist and similar content, this is contained to specific instances which can be blocked, we carry a list of such instances, so new instances can federate and include block lists. Instances are also open about their policies. You know what you are signing up to.

This is only possible as we are not profit, data orientated. Anyone here can be part of the decision making process for new features.
