    I had the same issue when initially coming to Lemmy, and made several accounts before I got so annoyed I did the research and chose an instance specifically for its federation/defederation policies; which led me to where I am now.

    Lemmy.zip has defederated only illegal content such as csam and gore, as well as meta because fuck corporate.

    I just generally dislike the idea of an arbitrary censorship list being applied to my content feed, I can choose and block myself.

      I also would rather manage what I block or federate to. I hate that Lemmy enables instances to have too much control over its users, deciding what you can and cannot see and admins can see your PMs too. I got fed up with Lemmy.world because of their federation fuckups, why would communities that talk about piracy but don’t link to anything cause an admin to get sued? They won’t, reddit allows more piracy talk than Lemmy.world does lmao. Obviously Nintendo searches through the fediverse for anyone even saying they pirated stuff, right guys?! Nah I just don’t care for their admins. I usually dont agree with whatever their admins say, I even saw someone from world complain about Lemmy.world policies on their thread and the user got their account deleted by an admin with a nice smug response from them. I can’t have my own instance since I don’t have the money to spare, otherwise I would since it is BS that Lemmy doesn’t allow users to have the same control over their feed as an admin.

        What you’re complaining about is impossible to do without hosting your own instance. I’m not even talking about Lemmy here, in saying from a software perspective. Like you’d have to have local encryption keys only to prevent a host from reading your messages. And there’s no way anyone would just host whatever because the users want it.

      I have both an account on Lemmy Zip and on Monero Town and both of those are really good about not defederating most things.
