Does law speech kill community projects?
Over the last few days, there has been quite some discussion about the new terms of use (TOS) of mastodon.social.
Something similar happened months ago with Mozilla/Firefox.
Rules are essentially a good thing.
They aim to provide clarity and security to all involved parties.
Both projects failed miserably in their respective attempts.
People with extensive knowledge of the subject have debated endlessly

The censorship is killing the Fediverse.
Which censorship are you talking about?
The constant defederation of nodes and banning of users.
I have heard of some cases of misjudgement, but I, honestly, don't see a pattern there.
Obviously, for larger instances it is rather difficult to look into every case in detail, just in terms of workload.
Moderation is an important part of running a network. Errors occur, but I have yet to see a systematic discrimination of well willing users within the network.
Might be, but I do see lots of discussions with different opinions.
There are several pretty controversial topics, besides the general agreement that capitalism sucks and nazis are full of shit.
Nevertheless: Hugging and being nice and friendly to each other is, in principle, a good thing.

Polite society has failed,nothing can be learned or agreed upon "Everyone must play nice",when the rules are set to herd you by those who make the rules,but live outside the rules.The Blackpill is there is no solution,just like a bunch of cows funneled thru pens and corrals in a single line encouraging forward movement preventing seeing what is ahead the abattoir awaits internet discussion solves nothing the Alpha and Omega is set

Yes, but I see it a little differently (big surprise).
Rules are method-based, where we need goal-based thinking.
This is roughly analogous to what Jesus H and Buddha were on about.
Plato riffs on this too with his biological determinism visualized as destiny relayed by the gods.
