Personally I specifically looked for an instance that defederates only illegal content, I can do the blocking of content I don’t care for myself. The most important thing is that I get as close to no preselected bias in my feed as possible.
From there I can block or hide whatever, I just want it to be my choice. Which is why I find all the defederation calls concerning. Use the blocking feature, defederation excludes discourse as well, and I would rather not sit in an echo chamber.
I fully agree. I’m here so that I can avoid the political echo chambers like Reddit and Facebook. It’s been bizarre seeing the calls to turn Lemmy into Facebook.
