Anywhere but lemmygrad or hexbear, really. lemmy.dbzer0.com, lemmy.world, lemmy.zip, or lemmy.blahaj.zone are all good ones. I'm quite partial to kbin.earth (although you'd need a different app), and there's also piefed instances.
Dbzer0 is pretty solid. Never had any issues with the admins, they post pro piracy shit, and they even ask for your input before implementing rule changes. It’s pretty comfortable and meets my values well enough.
Literally anywhere that isn’t lemmygrad or hexbear will usually be better. You could go to an instance with open sign up until you find somewhere else, but they tend to house a lot of closeted reactionaries, I assume because those people like the anonymity. Personally I just looked up instances to see which ones I liked. They’ll have a description of who they are and if sign ups require an application you just say why you want to join their instance. It’s not a huge deal really.
Might want to consider piefed instances as well, it’s a fediverse front-end not developed by the weaklings that decided to censor your innocuous words.
Literally any non-ml instance would be a way better choice. Also avoid hexbear. The rest are pretty solid. I’m happy with speed of Lemmus.org, but lemmy.world worked fine for me too.
I’m a refugee from lemm.ee and I’ve been enjoying piefed.zip and the .zip lemmy instance
Chose this one since I’ve heard (and from what I’ve seen) that like lemm.ee, the .zip instances only block the REALLY problematic stuff NSFL and illegal content, leaving it to the user to fill their own block lists rather than defederating
You can tag me whatever makes your ego feel better. I guess everything goes (including insults) but discuss the topic and reply the questions. Very brave bro. (͡•_ ͡• )
I actually teach the kids in my life that intent is more important than “magic naughty words,” so they can say bitch all they want so long as they aren’t being hateful. So maybe starting from the assumption that the status quo is reasonable and has merit isn’t the smartest idea?

I’m on feddit.nl do they censor shit or have other issues I should know about?
Badabinski@kbin.earth 1 month ago
Idk, they're probably fine. There are SO many instances out there nowadays, and I'd guess most of them are fine.

My 2 cents is lemmy.zip. it’s the most like the lost treasure that was lemm.ee. it leaves a lot of censoring up to the user

sh.itjust.works is awesome. The mods are cool as shit, and as you can tell from the name, there’s no BS censorship.

The level of shit .ml, lemmygrad and hexbear users receive for no good reason leaves me always speechless.
You shouldn’t say b.itch in person, we don’t teach to kids to say it, why is it crazy to moderate them?
Klear@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I just tagged you as “bitch”, you bitch.

Word censorship is ridiculous for sure
I mean is this the damn internet or not!
That said would kindly request a lil introspection on this comment
