I think there's cause for cautious optimism. Goolag is a much more willing participant in the censorship than this "the advertisers made me do it" narrative suggests, but that is a real constraint. I appreciate that Playeur is trying to find a solution to that problem instead of gaslighting everyone about the bias problem like Big Tech. Whether their solution will work is another question. I'm not all that optimistic that they'll find advertisers for non-woke content, but I respect them for trying. I'm less than thrilled with their underemphasis on free speech because that is important regardless of the advertiser problem, but they are committing to enforcing their rules in good faith which is a huge deal. If you look at their rules page they ban Antifa, so they're clearly not falling for the "Antifa isn't real" gaslight. As always actions speak louder than words, so we'll have to wait and see if they live up to their promises.
