As someone who mostly likes those things, that does seem to be a big problem here.

Make each user function as an instance, to solve the mess of netsplits/defederation.
lemmy.basedcount.com and lemmy.dbzer0.com are both interesting.
It’s like people are taking the ideologies of the instance owners and labeling anyone in it to have the same ideologies. Where did this come from?
I generally agree, but hexbear exists mostly as a place where r/chapoTrapHouse users went after it got banned from reddit, so it tends to have a specific type of user. (not that I agree with de-federating them, despite not being exactly aligned with them politically)
Set your default view to subscribed in user options to show only the sublemmys you are subscribed to.
You can change it in user settings.
I guess I can understand how some may be concerned about the latter happening, but given mastodon is open source a hidden algorithm isn’t really possible (barring some esoteric technique like code obfuscation)
No idea why you’re getting downvoted when lemmy uses an algorithm by default.
This isn’t the first proof of work “captcha” system, there’s several already out there.
Mastodon is full of netsplits caused by instances de-federating at the whims of various local BOFH.
They already de-federated 447 instances, I doubt that will make much difference.
