I’m just curious and don’t want to break any rules

Anything that we deem is not nice.
Have had bad experiences with reddit mods. So it’s hard to say when people are being what. So this statement seems a little ambiguous.

i think it’d be useful in this case to go in with a blank slate, just on the basis that while this functions in many ways like reddit, it isn’t reddit. as noted elsewhere in this thread we’ve really not needed to ban people and this place has existed for over a year.
That’s very vague, that could be anything though. Can you be more specific
It is intentionally vague. Please see the sidebar for the posts what is beehaw? and beehaw is a community. In particular that second link talks about the ethos of why the rules are intentionally vague. In short, this prevents anyone from being malicious and hiding behind rules to “just ask questions” or otherwise harass members with impunity.
Intentionally vague makes me think it’s that way on purpose so y’all can ban whoever you want
they can ban whoever they want, they own the website. Just like fb and twitter can ban whoever they want.
You’re not wrong. But how does that make a successful website when you ban everyone who challenges ideas? People are mean in real life, all some are, and I don’t see how just banning what you don’t like makes you prepared to deal with ‘mean’ people.

It doesn’t, but why would you think that they ban everyone who challenges ideas? They only want you to be nice.

Maybe that doesn’t perfectly prepare you, but not every website needs to do that. Other websites exist, on many of them you can literally be as mean as you want.
Like which websites can you be as mean as you want? I haven’t come across that
