What's a good conservative instance? (discuss.tchncs.de)

To be more specific (If this even makes sense) I'm looking for an instance that leans more on the conservative side, but isn't infested with politics.

I guess I'm looking for an instance that isn't highly political. Even if it's a conservative instance, I don't really want to only see or have a politically dominated feed.

I've been on conservative instances way in the past, and that's always been my issue with them. Obviously more left leaning instances have the same problem.

But I don't want my lemmy experience to be majority about politics no matter what side it leans.

To everyone downvoting: Stop downvoting well meaning questions because you think anyone using that word must be about taking a side in American politics.

There will always be people resistant to change. They should have a space to share their doubts in a healthy way without falling into the toxic sludge of "Conservativism" (which is often radically revolutionary btw)

And to answer the question: Your best bet is a mainstream instance, and not subscribing to anything related to politics. You won't escape it completely, and you can't avoid having your ideas challenged. But you can avoid name-calling and hostility related to election campaigns.

I downvote because I like the color of the arrow 💙
