Back when Twitter got acquired, everyone talked about finally having a platform where you could speak freely without worrying about getting your account axed. Sounds good on paper, right?
Here's the thing though—what's the point of being able to post whatever you want if your message just gets buried and nobody sees it anyway? You're technically free to say it, but your voice reaches nowhere. It's less about censorship and more about invisibility. Turns out true freedom means nothing without reach. That's exactly why the decentralized social experiment matters. When the algorithm and visibility aren't controlled by a handful of corporations, real open discourse becomes possible.

What the hell, if no one is listening, it’s as if you never said anything.

Algorithmic burying is even more ruthless than directly deleting accounts. To put it simply, it's just a different way of banning.

Algorithm review is even more disgusting than directly deleting posts; silent bans are the real despair.

Algorithm suppression is even more ruthless than account deletion. Freedom, my ass.

nah this is backwards. watched mt. gox unfold, watched twitter implode—visibility without trust is just noise. decentralized doesn't fix the signal-to-noise problem, it amplifies it. you're trading one bottleneck for a thousand. not financial advice but... read between the lines on who actually benefits from "true freedom" rhetoric.

Algorithm prison is even more ruthless than deleting accounts, honestly.

Algorithms are the true censors, more ruthless than directly deleting posts.
