The Agora
In the spirit of the Ancient Greek Agora, we invite you to join our vibrant community - a contemporary meeting place for the exchange of ideas, inspired by the practices of old. Just as the Agora served as the heart of public life in Ancient Athens, our platform is designed to be the epicenter of meaningful discussion and thought-provoking dialogue.
Here, you are encouraged to speak your mind, share your insights, and engage in stimulating discussions. This is your opportunity to shape and influence our collective journey, just like the free citizens of Athens who gathered at the Agora to make significant decisions that impacted their society.
You're not alone in your quest for knowledge and understanding. In this community, you'll find support from like-minded individuals who, like you, are eager to explore new perspectives, challenge their preconceptions, and grow intellectually.
Remember, every voice matters and your contribution can make a difference. We believe that through open dialogue, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to discovery, we can foster a community that embodies the democratic spirit of the Agora in our modern world.

Looking at feddit.org's homepage now, it has this rule:
"Content that is illegal in Germany, Austria or Switzerland will be deleted and can lead to an immediate ban of the account." (emphasis mine)
I am totally ignorant of how German law applies to social media hosted in Austria and moderated by Germans, but the intent to not host content illegal in Germany seems clear and a clear motivation for their censorship. I also can't evaluate the quality of their censorship because I'm not familiar with the requirements of German law.
I wish some of those comments “just expressing dissatisfaction and questioning the policy” had survived, because without them it's your word against theirs. :(
Okay, I've looked at the post and there are some replies. Some of them have the text they're replying to quoted.
I didn't see any relevant surviving quotations elsewhere in the pinned post, and I'm not going to go through a whole community looking.
