Why are you still on lemmy.world then? The freedom offered by federation is that you get a choice.

Lots of red flags about this project, the website seems to be primarily fixated on pointing out how "bad" Thunderbird is, which isn't a good look. Thunderbird works fine for me, this seems all a bit toxic.
Railway modelling/model railroading?
“If it’s clean enough to put back on your body, it’s clean enough to be put back”
I think I disagree there, clothes that are clean enough to be worn for another day aren't necessarily clean enough to be stored over a period of time. Think of it like food; there are leftovers that are probably OK to eat the next day but you would probably would want to treat them separately from your fresh food.
The only time I encounter it is when doing image searches for normal things and it seems to exist to make it maximally annoying to search for and download images. If I ever end up on Pinterest it's just a guaranteed headache.
She would have been an adult by the start of the second world war, so, what were her thoughts of those times? What did she think about the rise of the Nazis then compared with today?
Golden rule is to never use a computer with the OS that was preloaded. You'll never know what they put in there.
I used to think that there was a country called Cyclopedia, that was full of all kinds of fascinating things. I had a book all about it called "In Cyclopedia".
We might say December the 11th as well but that's definitely the less common of the two.
Where did you get this idea from? In British English 11th of December is more common. I'm open to the idea that American English does it differently and that's fine but to assert that the entire English speaking world does it like that is incorrect and ignorant.
There are two sides to the coin, just as you can chose which instances to use, they're free to run their instance how they like, which is how it should be in my opinion. I think it's a bit strong to call it censorship; it's their website, their servers, and if enough people don't like it they can just not post there. This is the same freedom we had with old-style forums, because there was no monopoly in many cases you could select a forum based on if you liked how it was run.
You're right, they have moderation control over lemmy.world posts, but it's still your decision to post there. If you feel that strongly about it you can even chose an instance that doesn't federate with lemmy.world, they exist.
You'll have to sign up for a new account, yes, but is that a big loss? I mean there's no karma here, your existing posts and account won't go away, it'll just not be the main account you log into any more. I personally think it's not a bad idea to have accounts on a few instances, I've moved around through several.
