Lemmy.ml and lemmygrad as well as tech.de (or something similar) I might host myself sometime later. I was on mastodont a while before , went back and tired of proprietary again. This time I am thoroughly fed up and will stay.

For me defederation is good. I see the problem with filterbubbles but I’m to old for this shit. I rather be in my bubble.

I tried to find a server that isn’t blocking anyone, and hasn’t been defederated by any of the big servers.

I want to avoid an echo-chamber and have access to everything on the fediverse, including stuff I find distateful. If anything really bothers me I will block the community/instance myself, I don’t want others making that choice for me.

Unfortunately there seems to be a lot of folks out there just searching for an excuse to clutch their pearls, rile up a mob, and defederate anything and everything that offends them.

I don’t want to circlejerk in a safe space echo chamber, I want to see both the yin and the yang of humanity. I want that wild west feeling of the internet of old

lemmy.ml because when I joined I had no idea of how the fediverse worked. I’d change it to a smaller one but it really doesn’t matter much I don’t think.

I chose lemmy.ca because I’m a proud Canadian patriot 💪🇨🇦🫡
