Tons of censoring.

Not even allowed to talk about the cocaine found at the White House.

I gotta say removing political/controversial topics isn't necessarily a bad thing. Just depends on your use case and stuff. Not every platform needs to be a free speech zone—right now it feels like a pretty chill space to share food pics and talk about inconsequential topics with friends.

Wow.

How are they already tagging accounts as "repeatedly posting false information that was reviewed by our independent fact checkers" if they've only been up for what, a day? Seems a bit premature unless they already had a pre-written blacklist.

You can do something repeatedly in the space of 24 hours, and if there isn't a backlog (and its hard to have one before you launch), there's no reason fact-check review of non-complicated cases has to have high latency.

Surely it’s that. And not the fact that Facebook routinely censors anything makes their preferred president look bad.

hilariously; people blame facebook for getting both Trump and Biden elected.

sounds like they imported instagrams WatchList
