He posts this, but still no mention of our situation or any attempt to have a conversation on it... shameful.. seems he looks after his own ass, his own server, but really dont give a rats ass about when it hurts other instances.

@freemo i think it's a combination of german leftwing being very much anti free speech combined with fears about risking support from the german government which also hates free speech - mastodon gGmbH is a tax exempt company after all ;)
We no longer reference free speech in our ToC partly for that reason.
@freemo i'm not exactly happy with that change tbh, but i can understand your reasons for it :)
i think that it's a slippery slope to replace "free speech" because from my experience the people who are against free speech are never satisfied.
if anything, don't let this whole thing affect your health, it clearly isn't worth it

@bonifartius Functionally its not a change at all.. We just say "Academic Freedom" instead, which honestly is a better descriptor anyway.
I agree it is a shame we had to do it, but it doesnt really change anything.
@freemo for me it feels just wrong that qoto is bullied into doing these things while it always was a nice place with nice people who discuss things in a civil way. maybe with opposing ideas but not in bad faith.
