    The nature of FOSS allows anyone to use free software like Lemmy and Mastodon. ICE could therefore join by making their own instance or joining a friendly one but it’d be defederated by most others.

    The great thing about fediverse is that everyone gets a voice and we can choose who to listen to.

      Truth Social is running Mastodon under the hood. But nobody considers it a part of the fediverse, because even if it had federation turned on it would instantly be defederated by 99% of instances.

      I’m sure there are nazi lemmy instances out there, but they are all defederated from the lemmyverse.

      This is the correct approach, decentralized platforms are somehow doing a better job at this then the de-facto centralized bsky.
