I wanted to try out PixelFed and was just going to make an account using the og pixelfed.social server, but after reading the rules, I definitely don’t want to use that server. Mainly because of this rule
“No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies”
That’s not gonna fly for me. I definitely want to see people inciting violence against CEOs and stuff if the time comes. Anyone have any server recommendations that doesn’t have rules like that and won’t block other instances, If that’s a similar thing like Lemmy instances block others. I like seeing everybody’s opinions and comments even if I disagree with them. I don’t want to join an instance that would, for example, defederate a hexbear pixelfed instance.
The laws for incitement of violence are supposed to be pretty narrow; see Brandenburg v. Ohio, 395 U.S. 444 (1969). OTOH, prosecutors tend to overreach frequently, and fighting it in court is expensive, even if you would otherwise prevail and have charges dismissed.
