  • No server operator needs to federate with you.
  • No server operator needs to tolerate things they don't want on their instance.
  • No user of an instance needs to personally curate their own extensive never ending blocklist of users and channels they don't want to see.

Quit your pseudo-intellectual whining and choose what instance(s) work for you. If you think regularly interacting with shit content somehow helps you stay out of an echo chamber then go ahead and make a second account on those garbage instances full of hateful people. Then you can read both the decent servers and the trash ones and be the fedora wearing ackshually right fair and balanced uber nerd you always wanted to be.

Edit: The huge number of upvotes on this post compared to the low numbers on the whiney imposers' posts is proof of exactly where this community places its priorities.

"interacting with shit content" but I want to see the most controversial instance. I want to see some wild shit. I'm curious of what the bad boys have to say.

No-no, you misunderstand, I want the circus to come to me.

Fully agreed. We are all on the internet, where you can find a link to questionable content anytime. Moderation is usually limiting those links, but (unless your ISP is blocking sth) nobody is cut off from said content. It is just harder to find, and there is no "right" to find content easily.
