- No server operator needs to federate with you.
- No server operator needs to tolerate things they don’t want on their instance.
- No user of an instance needs to personally curate their own extensive never ending blocklist of users and channels they don’t want to see.
Quit your pseudo-intellectual whining and choose what instance(s) work for you. If you think regularly interacting with shit content somehow helps you stay out of an echo chamber then go ahead and make a second account on those garbage instances full of hateful people. Then you can read both the decent servers and the trash ones and be the fedora wearing ackshually right fair and balanced uber nerd you always wanted to be.
Edit: The huge number of upvotes on this post compared to the low numbers on the whiney imposers’ posts is proof of exactly where this community places its priorities.
We have both sides here, Lemmygrad for far-left people, Beehaw for far-right.
In what universe is Beehaw “far-right”, or even “right” for that matter?
In the universe where it banned lemmygrad because it’s marxist instance.
People defederate from lemmygrad because it’s a tankie instance, not because it’s leftist.
Tankies are disliked because they uncritically rally around any country that rejects/has sway against Western influence, even if that country does bad shit.
I don’t know about right or left, but beehaw looks the most “American” to me. I personally wanna have “All”, just without beehaw (as in some exclude post from filter).
My understanding is that Beehaw is an American instance. It’s left in America, but more centrist to right internationally.
