The instance seems to be mostly right wing trolls. I know defederating is unpopular but I don’t think much is to be lost in this case and it can save the mods some headaches.

    Can we agree that the public fediverse should not be a curated safe space where ideas not supported by your political leaders are suppressed but instead just moderated for personal insults and harassment and such?

      The Fediverse, and what you see in it, should be what you want it to be. That’s what the prevailing design decisions of the Fediverse have always been. You want more exposure to more of the Fediverse than I do. That’s great. You should have that. I want a more curated experience where I don’t have to deal with what I consider bigoted or abusive behavior. I should also have that. It’s why instance choice matters. If you don’t like how an instance federates, you are free to pick another instance or self-host. For me, what works is two accounts. One that sees more, and one that’s more curated. That’s been a pattern of use on the Fediverse for a long time

        I don’t think you should be expecting any curation if you’re looking at the All tab.

        So far this instance alignes with my values. If this changes I will leave.
