I say somewhat - it really depends on which server you're on, because that defines the initial community that will be immediately available to you. There's also plenty of mods and admins that have very pronounced political views and will exercise their power according to them.
I've found that the discussion is better here, although slower, and there are far fewer bots and trolls (although Fediverse trolls tend to be heartier and more persistent than their Reddit cousins).
I was think it's really easy to evade bans since you can log into another instance and fediverse isn't about storing your information.
