I can't believe that a seasoned Steem influencer such as you is calling downvotes censorship. This lively debate is the proof, if you need any, against that claim.
So-called self-censorship is nothing more than a metaphor. The rewards are a powerful incentive to do what's going to get you rewards, so while it works as a euphemism it's obviously not actual censorship.
Thank you, exactly my thoughts.
I for one more often read flagged comments than regular ones. :D
Yea I usually check out what the fuss is all about 😂
These flags are just in your minds ;) I can't see any of them on Busy.org.
There is contradiction in the parent comment of @beanz ,it may be some true but the second part of comment is endorsement to their project. How can downvote be a censorship that too created for some self benifit.
Provide some space to breath!!!!!
