You seem to be saying that moderation actions should be performed against users, not instances. You're not getting that instances ARE users. On a network where anyone can create an instance, and then as many accounts on that instance as they like, moderating accounts from a hostile instance is POINTLESS.

No, I'm saying I dont want a 3rd party pre-selecting the content I'm allowed to see. I want to make the choices myself

Then make an instance yourself, easy peasy

Doesn't that exactly imply what I said? It's the same thing, man. You're trying to play hockey with a lacrosse stick and getting pissed off at lacrosse. Go play hockey if that's what you're into, the same rules don't make sense here.

Okay well then I'm saying exactly that

What "third party"? There is only one party that decides how their server is run and moderated and that's the server owner.. If you want to see Nazi content, you can go visit the Nazi server, nobody is stopping you from doing that except maybe your government.. Nobody should be forced to host Nazi content on their servers against their will..

So go make that choice and host your own instance.. What gives you the right to choose how to run an instance you don't own? I could understand if you have no other choice, but you do have the choice. The code is available for free..
