“Freedom of Speech, not Freedom of Reach - our enforcement philosophy which means, where appropriate, restricting the reach of Tweets that violate our policies by making the content less discoverable.”
Surprise! Our great ‘X’ CEO has brought back one more bad thing that we hated about twitter 1.0: Shadowbanning. And they’ve given it a new name: “Freedom of Speech, Not Reach”.
Perhaps the new approach by X is an improvement? At least they would “politely” tell you when you’re being shadow banned.
I think freedom of speech implies that people have the autonomy to decide what they want to see, rather than being manipulated by algorithm codes. Now it feels like they’re saying, “you can still have your microphone… We’re just gonna cut the power to it if you say something we don’t like”.
The same old Twitter with the same old censorship.🤨 You can still speak but you just won’t be heard, lmao. Elon is good at monopolistics👍
Well, I now use Twitter/X solely for daily news checks. For speaking and expressing myself freely, I’m on WireMin — love it.
There’s no censorship because it’s decentralized. So it means no one can act as a moderator to remove my content in chat rooms or ban my account.
They didn’t even ask for personal information like a phone number or email address during registration! Just provided a private key, and I set a username/password — it’s straightforward, like the old way. (This is their webpage https://wiremin.org/)
“No one can act as a moderator to remove my content” This claim does align with with the principle of freedom of speech, but we have to admit that for now, complete freedom without any control can be unsafe. It could potentially lead to spams and political issues. However, the feature of not asking for phone numbers or email addresses sounds interesting, especially considering Elon is planning to introduce government ID verification.

This is blatant advertisement. Doesn’t it violate the instance rules?
