The existence of lemmy.world which you're part of, proves that lemmy tolerates right-wing instances if you ask me.
Make use of the decentralized nature of lemmy, the devs won't knock at your door for creating or posting on right-wing instances.
True. But they can also lock it. I see federation has a double edged sword.
Would you say like in the case of your comment, where the ratio skews heavily towards negative, something like having the thread collapsed by default or like hiding the score would be a better way to facilitate productive discussion? I think it works as a temporary middle ground (say the first 24H a post is up and folk's aren't completely decided, it gives controversial ideas a fightin' chance)
Maybe it's more that the majority of the fediverse doesn't tolerate far right bullshit and open racism, unlike the other reddit alternatives.
