It’s one thing to have differing views, but I’ve seen enough attempted reddit migrations to be relieved that the popular communities in the fediverse so far haven’t been about crazy racist stuff or other extreme right bullshit.
I am also glad that I’m getting away from reddit’s general political shitposting, which was more left leaning. You couldn’t have any proper discourse on there, and even I with my generally more left leaning views recognized that.
The beauty of Lemmy/Kbin is that instances will naturally form multiple alliances with each other. Racist instances will form alliances with each other, and respectful instances like Lemmy.world will form alliances with respectful instances. Think of instances as countries.
Already, Lemmy.world defederared with the racist instance Exploding Heads: https://lemmy.world/post/747912
