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.

federated with everyone
Yeah okay OP someone definitely isn't some flavour of racist
Yeah there's two 'main' kinds of people who want a platform where users are able to post hate speech and reach "everyone" with it.
People who want to be hateful and want access to the targets of their hate. They want to upset people, they want to 'own the libs' or be able to toss slurs at minorities, and those things are unrewarding for them if they don't get to see how upset they've made their targets.
People who want to recruit people to being hateful. They want to convince normal people to share their prejudices and their biases, they want "debates" or would like to share "statistics" and are seeking a soapbox that can reach people who might find their views convincing.
This is a huge part of why defederation works, why platforms like Voat or Gab rarely thrive for very long. Being hateful in an echo chamber towards people who are outside the room is rarely fun for those folks, and very often results in in-fighting and fragmenting of the movement. Moderates and 'normies' are driven off because now they're a target rather than a participant or spectator.
