Somehow, I feel like the federated network is still centralized, because there is still censorship; it's just distributed across more servers.

I mean, it definitely gives users more rights to free speech, and I'm not worried about privacy issues. However, the removal of content and the banning of accounts are things that are diminishing my passion for sharing my thoughts publicly(on reddit).

I just dont want this happened on here but I am seeing some...

This issue should be solved if you could just set lemmy to not cache federated NSFW images (without fully disabling NSFW on your instance) since then users would load the images from the remote server and not the homeserver.

But that also relies on posts being tagged correctly

True, guess not caching remote content at all should be an option as well. Then you can just block caching for every instance that doesn't enforce proper tagging.

so.. defederating. like is already happening

[-] monerobull@monero.town 2 points 1 year ago

No, defederating would block all flow between instances. The problem is with hosting content that you don't want to or arent allowed to host. Currently if I view a image from burggit, the image gets saved to the monero.town and then served whenever someone else views it from there, which is a problem. If instead every time someone wants to view that image, it gets pulled from burggit again, monero.town isn't in trouble for hosting it anymore.
