This is very welcome. Expect massive pushback from legacy media, who take every opportunity to attack social media companies anyway. They are competitors!

Hasn't really worked on twitter because there are clearly Traliban mods still there.

Thank god for that. It's time all "trust and safety" committees were disbanded. They are each an opportunity for young people who have been fed anti-western CRT nonsense at University - and then seek to shape the world by exercising censorship. The worst of them was Patreon - a company who lost my trust years ago due to their deluded T&S behavior.

I'm also cautious about singing Zuckerberg's praises. This announcement comes suspiciously close to Trump taking the helm. Perhaps Zuckerberg doesn't like the idea of Musk being the only one on chummy terms with the new president, and means to use this to gain favour too. That said, free speech and free expression are incredibly difficult to navigate if you own a social media platform and it is important to periodically review and make according changes. One issue which is prevant on SM is discussions of Islam; there's criticising Islam (perfectly justified) and then there's directing hatred toward Muslims (obviously not justified). I've certainly seen plenty of the latter on X which made me extremely uncomfortable, and I say that as a critic of Islam. I've left X now as I feel it has become a madhouse. I hope Facebook steers towards a more pleasant landscape than what X has become; a rage machine.

In this model where anyone can censor without accountability, how long before you see Zionist Bots directing the fact checking. Don't like a keyword like Genocide - send a million plausible user complaints and see what happens next. This Zuckerberg pro zionist move is transparently the opposite of what it purports to be. IMO. (TIUR).

Haha. How you have somehow managed to make this about a Jew issue, sorry, I mean a 'pro-Zionist move' is pretty extraordinary. Congratulations.
