"The fediverse is for everyone"
Everyone? Are you sure? I can think of a lot of truly, deeply evil people we wouldn't want anywhere near anything we're involved in.
There's inclusivity and freedom of expression, and then there's groups of people that do things that are so evil and illegal and so on that I might get told off just for mentioning what those things are by name, so I won't.
But yeah, in principle I completely agree with you of course, that there shouldn't be barriers and limitations to who can interact with who and such, but in practical application we have to realise there are groups that absolutely should be ostracised for our own safety and to limit their growth and power over our society, sadly :-(
I don't know what feudposting is though, but I can take a guess. I've never taken part in any sort of beef between instances, I don't really notice what instance stuff comes from much at all, I just join communities that I think look cool and trust the mods and admins to handle what's appropriate and what's not. It's worked very well so far, touch wood! :-)
Yes… the fediverse IS for everyone. You don’t want “evil” people anywhere near anything you’re involved in? Block their instance. Simple as.
