Defederation isn't an on/off switch.

If enough freedom of speech instances get defederated from the censorship instances, it will just create 2 different sections of the fediverse.

Right now, it doesn't look like there's any section of the fediverse that supports freedom of speech.

Yes, that's the purpose of this thread.

I'm trying to find instances that support freedom of speech.

Sorry, perhaps you misunderstand.

I do not want to go through the trouble and effort of creating my own instance if someone else has already done so. I'd rather join them and give them my support instead of creating further fragmentation and making it harder for people who want freedom of speech to communicate as a result.

If you have any experience in software development, you'd realize it makes sense more often than not to use other people's solutions if they exist before building your own. The same principle applies here.

 

I'm not a big fan of moderation being at the whims of whoever has an agenda.

Are there lemmy instances that take moderation seriously and don't just ban/censor people they disagree with? So far it looks like the mods in lemmy.world instances are very flippant with their moderation and I'm curious if anyone has filled the void yet for a better instance.

Edit: Thanks for everyone who tried to give a legitimate response. No thanks to those who just wanted to spout their talking points or debate the merits of freedom of speech; that was never the point of this thread.
