Well, a network ofislands and each island with its own rules. That seems to be mastodon.

I like X so far. It is the most "free" platform as far as the local laws allow.
But sure, things could change and it is completely centralised.

What i have as a backup would be nostr(using amethyst as a client). Not sure
how far censorship resistance goes there. I think on the relay level, there could be a similar level of censorship. But you can't be really banned, as you could connect to an infinite number of relays with your client. Each existing relay would have to filter your messages to censor you globally.

Usually the network with the most users "wins".
