This opinion has always been stupid. It has never been about "points," it has been about reputation, the points were only ever meant as a shorthand representation of the reputation. So yes, Lemmy won't give me your point total, but I can still see both your comments themselves and their "scores" that I might be able to gauge whether or not you have a reputation as somebody with meaningful contributions or as a contrarian edgelord.

People have literally never had to say that.
First off it was Tiktok, not YouTube, that started the "unalived" trend, but even then make no mistake, "killed," "murdered," "died," etc has never been banned on tiktok either.
What has been happening is that videos (on tiktok) with "potentially divisive content" are not being promoted by tiktok. You video will not get removed just for saying the word "killed" and will still be fully available for viewing by your followers, it just won't be promoted on the For You page for strangers.
And it's fine if you still object to this, but we have to stop conflating the two. Not being promoting is not the same thing as being censored.
Edit: I don't know who downvoted this or why, but I'm right
For those looking where to head, here's where I picked.
What an absolutely insane stretch that has nothing to do with what I said. Clearly you aren't here to discuss, you're just here to soapbox. But I didn't sign up for your asinine TedTalk, so I'm just gonna block you so I never have to waste my time on you again.
