Just to stress that, different instances/sites have different admins with different rules just like communities have mods and their rules. If there’s an issue with a given instance then you can block it or move away from it while generally keeping access to the same content unlike centralised social media where you’d be forced to either accept abuse of power or lose access to everything. What I mean is that if you find your instance to be problematic then you can look for an alternative one that fits your values better instead of completely abandoning the fediverse. I also mean that you can block whole instances from your feed which can work quite well for some instances that are more topic focused than others. For example, if you don’t like anime then blocking ani.social will hide a good chunk of anime communities from you since people like to create anime communities there.
Huh ? I didn’t known that.
