The internet needs spaces that our rights are fully present for and that aren’t subject to the whims of a private corporation.

Exactly. Websites like Reddit and Facebook have gobbled up a huge part of the internet and are essentially the virtual public space. I got banned from Reddit for bullshit reasons and there is absolutly no recourse. Appeals are just closed without anyone really looking at them. Making a new account is next to impossible.
