I've been intending to leave Lemmy for Piefed, but I'm not overly familiar with Piefed instances yet.
.world is the boring answer. For all the flak it gets, most of its trouble is that admins don't generally interfere with comm moderation, and thus a significant amount of .world comms have... questionable moderation. In this case, though, that's an advantage. But it's an institutionally robust instance, the largest, permissive for our purposes, and the admins are at least willing to walk back dumbass decisions if there's public outcry.
sh.itjust.works would be the other major option.
dbzer0 is a good instance for most things, but the aggressively anti-electoralist stance of the admins makes it an uncomfortable fit for "Let's make a new coalition in the current political environment."
Most other servers are either small, or have a regional/topical bend to them which may not be desirable.
I get that. I feel like the least tech-capable person on Lemmy, so I don't really get into the fediverse meta. In any case, doesn't hurt to have a wide presence.
Yeah.
I'll admit I'm not really savvy to the intricacies of Lemmy politics, but my username betrays a mild bias. I do enjoy the ethos it implicitly suggests by its name.
Tell me about it. Them or slrpnk was my first instinct, and as much as I agree with them on a lot of things, they seem to have been infected with the ideology-uber-alles bug.
