I am looking to change my instance since many defederation and censorship decisions on lemmy.world.

Anyone knows of any instance that has a rule against defederation and is more free speech oriented. Of course I am looking for an instance that forbids illegal content like CP. But I want an instance that does not censor hate speech!

The instance should be hopefully federated with mostly everyone, unless defederated because of CP. I was considering lemm.ee, but I saw a comment from an admin saying that they could consider defederation if certain propaganda reaches front page.

Before anyone accuses me of anything, I just want to be exposed to different viewpoints, and I am not offended so easily, so I can tolerate offensive content. What is important is that the rules on defederation dont change in the future.

@thecam

Doesn't the 1st apply to US citizens only?

Yes but hosting a "free speech instance" in a country without freedom of speech protections will be harder to run due to the lack free speech rights. I advise running such an instance in the US for this reason.

The users on the instance that are not US citizens have to in theory follow their local laws. Kinda like how a Russian or Chinese internet user needs to be cautious when using American social media.

it applies to US persons. adult civilians are protected. children are a grey area. if you're outside of the US you're probably a communist so why bother ;)
