You’re on Lemmy.world which is a very large lib instance (very dem friendly, but highly sanitized). They have defederated with the leftests (hexbear.net, Lemmy.ml [the Lemmy dev’s home instance], and lemmygrad.ml) over “extreme views” and the anarchists (Lemmy.dbze0.com) over piracy support (oh my mistake, they just blocked all piracy communities) long time ago. I’ll let someone else explain the flotilla.
As for good instances, it depends what kind of experience you want to have. Why isn’t there an instance test yet?
I’m not scare quotes, I’m representing that this was .world’s view.
And what hexbear was doing was interacting with the common reditor refugee after interacting with nothing but their leftest instance for years. It was a clash of cultures, and I think the right thing happened. I think that’s the great thing about the fediverse - being able to decide (as instance, comm, or user) who you interact with, which was what the tesseract dev was taking away from people.

World has never defederated from lemmy.ml, partially because they’re the dev’s home instance.
nah, scare quotes can naff off. Hexbear was dogpiling like crazy and .ml is just…IDK what they’re doing over there but everyone’s banned from it.

Agreed.
I still get lemmy ml , maybe because I’m on sync, but I’ve blocked it several times.
