Looking for a free speech instance (lemmy.world)

I am looking to change my instance since many defederation and censorship decisions on lemmy.world.

Anyone knows of any instance that has a rule against defederation and is more free speech oriented. Of course I am looking for an instance that forbids illegal content like CP. But I want an instance that does not censor hate speech!

The instance should be hopefully federated with mostly everyone, unless defederated because of CP. I was considering lemm.ee, but I saw a comment from an admin saying that they could consider defederation if certain propaganda reaches front page.

Before anyone accuses me of anything, I just want to be exposed to different viewpoints, and I am not offended so easily, so I can tolerate offensive content. What is important is that the rules on defederation dont change in the future.

It's not really possible to have an instance that doesn't remove hate speech but also hasn't been defederated by other instances, since most instances do not tolerate hate speech.

You're more likely to be exposed to different viewpoints in a reasonably moderated instance that doesn't allow hate speech, which would be federated with a lot of other instances, rather than an instance that allows it, which would most likely be in a hate speech bubble with other similar instances.
