This right here sums it up nicely:
The whole shtick with Fediseer is to pressure instances into falling in line under threat of defederation. It's reasonably effective, most small instances would struggle when cut off from chunks of the federated network they're trying to be a part of.
I also think most Admins probably hope to get some money coming in through donations, and you need to be reasonably vanilla and attract new people for that to work.
We really don't need donations to keep running, in fact we don't even ask. I'll be damned if I let some random Internet dude with an over-inflated sense of self-importance tell me who I can or can't allow on the instance I run as a hobby, as to not offend his political sensibilities.
@realcaseyrollins@narwhal.city I meant this as a reply to your post but failed.
The problem with the grouping of servers running lemmy is they are the Nazi problem. I am not an overly political person, I lean right but I call it more common sense and personal responsibility. On Lemmy, they turn everything political and rarely have a sense of humor. It's why most of them were kicked off other platforms because of their extreme views.
If you have ever watched silicon valley, you will understand the issues with the fediverse.
