That's a pretty common mindset amongst small instance runners I think, including the one I'm on. Only caveat, this instance doesn't allow NSFW posting (viewing is fine), and has a pretty vague ban policy lmao

As long as it isn't actual credentials from reputable sites, it's almost definitely a scam lol

Yeah, but if you were to advertise your instance, this is probably something I'd put as a selling point, rather than have some racist person sign up to your instance only to get banned a couple days later.

Defederation because of harassment seems excessive, surely one can just mute a user? Not sure if I'd be comfortable with your defedation policy. It's one thing to defederate from definitely-illegal-content like CSAM, it's another thing to defederate because feelings were hurt.

So long as major instances continue to rely on blacklists rather than whitelists, that won't be a problem for the hundreds of small instances.

The end game is to either run your own instance, or find an instance that is run by an admin with the same mindset as you might have.

It's a great take and I hope they do continue to ban/block more controversial topics so people spread out more.

That's not how federation works. You can still interact with lemmy.world and its users from another instance, but spreading out not only helps with lemmy.world's load, but also the fediverse.

Wait till lemmy.world is up, and then run the tool?

Almost definitely, it's hard to imagine there's a community on lemmy.world that not one of the 20k users have susbcribed to

Pretty much any of the top 5 instances already subscribe to each others communities. Definitely not missing out on lemm.ee either!

One can easily get around that by simply subscribing to more communities!

It's actually really bad. With how big it is, it's now the default for even new mobile applications, which means it will now only grow bigger. 5x is just the start. We are just seeing the start of the centralised decentralised Lemmyverse.

too late, going to register on lemm.ee now!

Is it really federated social media now though? With how much .world has grown, they could disable federation and be their own walled garden.

Like, they have nearly 5x more active users than .ml at this point, how ridiculous is that?

I agree, but it's too late now. Even Sync defaults to the .world instance, and at this rate, they'll only grow bigger.

You want to defederate from the largest Lemmy instance, the poster child, and the mascot of Lemmy? Good luck. They are Lemmy now.

At present, I don't think it does, which is a shame.

Well, it's their instance, they can do what they want with it. You should definitely save your $ and setup your own instance so you can federate with whatever you want.
