Hey guys, if I run a server, how independent I am? Can anyone delete my plattform if he doesnt like the discussions on it? Is there any censorship from above? Or is every server selfregulated?

I answered the same question in this comment. The worst we can realistically do against an instance we dont like is 1. not list it on joinlemmy, 2. block it on lemmy.ml (but admins of other instances can still decide to federate).
You could also add a hard-coded instance block in future versions (that similar to the slur filter of course would be easy to remove again).
Uff, that would need to be upgraded almost every time. The thing with slurs is that language doesn’t change so fast but with domains and services…
