Regarding what you said about censorship, censorship on reddit doesnt equate the censorship on a federated network. Sure you can get banned from an instance but lets say theres an instance (will be more likely) that allows total free speech?
With reddit, youll be banned no matter which subreddit you go. The fediverse cant ban you. Thats the biggest difference
The fediverse can’t ban you but at some point I guarantee there will be instances that dominate with the amount of users. When that happens, if you are banned, you will essentially be banned from the communities that primarily exist on those instances.
Sure you could even create your own instance of lemmy but you will be talking to yourself.
