Okay I didn't expect stricter rules here than on Reddit honestly.
To be clear, this is an instance choice. You can still find drug friendly instances and subscribe to the communities.
...But then, you risk e.g. lemmy.world and other big instances defederating from your new instance. Lemmy has some design problems.
If we were talking about defederating from instances that promote pedophilia, would you still consider it a shitty feature?
Federation, or defederation, is kind of the core of a federated platform. Having different instances with different rules would make moderation impossible if defederation did not exist, maybe not in most cases but at the very least when it comes to fringe groups having their own instances.
You can have multiple accounts across multiple instances. Just don't reuse passwords because rogue admins can set up their web interface to just give them plaintext passwords (and possibly also do that through other clients, depending on how the protocol handles passwords).
Lemm.ee is your friend
Me neither, thought ๐๐ค there was gonna be sum kind o freedom or sum shit
