Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

I am looking to change my instance since many defederation and censorship decisions on lemmy.world.

Anyone knows of any instance that has a rule against defederation and is more free speech oriented. Of course I am looking for an instance that forbids illegal content like CP. But I want an instance that does not censor hate speech!

The instance should be hopefully federated with mostly everyone, unless defederated because of CP. I was considering lemm.ee, but I saw a comment from an admin saying that they could consider defederation if certain propaganda reaches front page.

Before anyone accuses me of anything, I just want to be exposed to different viewpoints, and I am not offended so easily, so I can tolerate offensive content. What is important is that the rules on defederation dont change in the future.

We we defederate from all of these, as do most instances. This means we don't see or interact with that kind of sludge. From these types if instances, if they were federated at some point, they may be able to see defederated instances as they were at the time the break occurred. They will also be able to post content and interact with other users on their instance as if they are posting to a defederated instance, but that content will only exist on their instance. Each instance is like its own planet. There are shuttles traveling between planets that transport content all the time. Defederating is simply cutting off all incoming and outgoing shuttles. You must choose what kind of person you are and your friends. You can't play on both sides. You're either a decent human or you're not. There are instances in the fediverse that are ultra fascist right wing shits, but that is up to you to seek out your fellow Klansmen.
