Looked at the list and did a bit of searching as well as checking the reasons they were defederated. Looks like the top one is basically a trolling group akin to GNAA or some of the proto 4chan or SomethingAwful shit for those who remember back that far.

I can understand why overt trolling and possibly illegal content would be defederated.

That said I would like to see more diverse opinions and sources on my Lemmy feed though. There has to be a base somewhere that isn't literal nazis but isn't open socialists either.

Please, this. Lemmy is boring as all hell. 95%+ of users have the same opinions. It's a giant echo chamber.

You're free to sub to whatever instances you want. You seem to be complaining about your own inaction.

I do sub to whatever instances I want. And sometimes I go to All. It's called an observation. It's ok when people say things you disagree with.

I didn't disagree with anything.

I disagree.
