That "hivemind" is just people. If you want to hide from it, you need a place where they can't find you. That is not a Fediverse that seeks to provide an alternative to the major social media networks.
Fortunately, the Fediverse can accommodate you, but you'll have to work for it. You need to find an Instance that has that kind of culture you're looking for, that closer, cooler, tighter-knit one.
But you can't ask the whole service to stay that one way that makes you happy. That's not fair to the rest of the world, no matter how much one may dislike it.
Don't just find somewhere that feels nice, find one where they intend to stay that way.
