This is a non-answer.
What matters most is the type of people in charge of the instance, why the decide to do certain things, and the types of decisions they’re likely to make in the future.
Not all instances are the same in that regard.
Comment on What's a good instance to be on at the moment?

looking for a instance with the fewest trolls, bots, and anyone that likes to take things to the extremes.
All the instances are good in their own way, but at least one will irritate you very much, and it’s always different. There are ways each one can make you go “why???”
There are commenters who will call one or more instances bad things. That may or may not be accurate for you.
Each large instance has one or more crazy mods, most have decent mods. Each instance will have multiple examples about why it’s good or horrible.

It is rather both sides, isn’t it?
But, after poking around lemmy, I have decided there is value in all instances. There will be communities nestled in between the stuff I do not like. I like and dislike much on lemmy

There are some instances far worst than others other. I think hex bear has been defederated by many for example.
And I agree with the crazies; I think it’s true for any group that’s large enough, regardless of platform or real world communities.
