Why would someone who doesn't like blocking and de-federation like "federated platforms"?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah part of the point of this is that it’s not a free speech zone unless you want a free speech instance. I prefer a more curated against bigots experience. Others don’t. Still others prefer other forms of curation. Federation means we can all talk to each other as long as we stay within boundaries of what others will stay federated with.

Exactly, it also means we can have different regions for different types of conversations, much like in the real world.
