There needs to be 2 words to describe 2 types of censorship. Censorship means the suppression or prohibition of public communication considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, politically incorrect or inconvenient etc. Suppression of speech is what we get due to curation. Whatever gets voted to the top naturally helps to censor the content at the bottom. And the flags on this particular user interface. We are however free from the prohibition of speech. We are free from that form of censorship so I wish there was a word to differentiate the 2. (if there isn't one)
effectively, yes
I still like having the post THERE on the blockchian for as long as the chain is maintained
but as far as visibility and payout, oh yes it is censorship

there is a point we get to semantics
we look at the intent of posting
if it is to say something and get it on record to the blockchain, then no there is not censorship.
OTOH, if the intent is to communicate the idea and/or to get money for posting it, it becomes censorship very quickly
