The full Atlantic Council Fediverse report is especially interesting (and only 12 pages). You can look at it a couple of different ways.
An instance like Hexbear with a stated ideology seems the most resilient to bad actors, imo. If you can just flat-out ban someone for being a wrecker, you're in a lot better shape than a general-public instance that has to come up with a bunch of general rules and exceptions and then try to figure out the letter+spirit of the rules on the fly
Also, Lemmy didn't even make the chart. Wamp waaaammmmmp
What other lemmy-like platforms are there? I came straight here from Reddit because the people championing it were quite convincing. Also... Is hexbear lemmy or is it more akin to kbin?
Hexbear is a Lemmy instance. As far as platforms, it's pretty much Lemmy and kbin to my knowledge.
Mastodon is federated Twitter. Peertube is federated Youtube. Pixelfed is federated Instagram. Lemmy is federated Reddit. There are dozens of others. Most of them can talk to each other most of the time.
I was leaning more towards reddit-like platforms such as Lemmy but I wasn't very clear about it in my comment
