Ok, my perspective is that is gotten better. You still hear some kind of censorship in particular situations, which is not good. Yet i also hear from mainstream media that X is now a place with more right wing discussions and also more trash posts. But that also tells me, that overall there is less censorship.
Agree, you could be right there and more tolerant than before. Especially under Jack's time there it was very bad, but I was not a big user then.
