picking a mastodon server to join is easy -- just think of it like you're allying with one of many families in a war-torn medieval land, each with their own histories, feuds, laws, blood rituals

Fedi meta about defederation 

Every time I see a user on another instance say "but mods/admins shouldn't defederate, users should have to block hate themselves"

I think to myself "Okay, start your own server so I can block it".

My job, a huge part of my job, is making sure my users are safe from abuse and harassment and awful content. That often means dropping entire servers for lax/no moderation and, yes, a "free speech" stance.

Defederate early, defederate often.

@doot the difference between instance admins and landlords is that instance admins actually have to work pretty hard
