See the brilliant part about Lemmy, and the fediverse in general, is that you can create an account on a different instance to get away from bogus moderation and still have access to the federated content you saw before; in short, you can switch platforms without switching platforms. This was one of the things that attracted me to Lemmy in the first place -- it's not just another Reddit clone that will enshittify the same way Reddit did in a couple years once the people who moved to it get complacent. The cost of switching platforms here is effectively zero.
