This seems like a misunderstanding of how Fediverse works. It's about voluntary association between instance owners. If you don't like the decisions made by your instance owner, then the point of Fediverse is that you can either find an instance that thinks like you do, or make your own. It's not about forcing owners to associate with other instances they dislike, even if you disagree with the reasoning.
There's a bit of downside in that Lemmy doesn't let you migrate accounts at this time, but it's basically brand-new open source software. Whether you meant to or not, you signed up to be a user for an incomplete experience.
