the problem with #Mastodon was that people were slaves of their instance owners who decided for them what they could follow and what not
I have seen this in practice by using a heavily blocked instance #freeatlantis.com
#nostr may have the answer to these problems, nostr gives the choice to the individual user
I found freeatlantis by this post back in 2022

Is #FreeAtlantis blocked by other instances (like mastodon.social)?
what I like with freeatlantis.com is that you don't need to subscribe to any ideology for to sign in.
it was the only one I found in that category when I was looking for an alt-account
@midway @CDuBois @DrFell @JesseStone @Missustruth1776 @sj_zero @curtis I haven't talked to that many #FreeAtlantis users, are they all like that?
Haha, #FreeAtlantis users are blocking me now...for not just being a leftist, but being a black one!
What makes me a leftist, you may ask? Me saying that the #GOP shouldn't pick #Trump as the nominee in 2024 
@cully45 @pamby1 I agree! I like #FreeAtlantis !
Typing this from my development version of https://mammudeck.com. I'm switching from https://agog.ninja to that for a while. Things to do:
1. Login to #FreeAtlantis doesn't work (there's a wizard workaround).
2. Server per column, instead of per login.
3. Number 2 enables quick cross-posting.
4. S3 persistence for state (currently it uses LocalStorage)
5. User profile pop-up
@DrFell @justhuman THIS.....RIGHT HERE....is a perfect example of a healthy, respectful debate we get to witness and experience here on #FreeAtlantis
Gosh, what a contrast to that other place! Love it so much! 
@icare4america We will post it here on our free speech awesome #FreeAtlantis #FA site all we want!!!
I happened to find this very article just yesterday when I was digging. Couple highlights screenshotted.
He just said it.
Decertify.

I saw eight anonymous posts in a row with #freeatlantis.com that made me look.
I had noticed that folks were not posting and i was not happy with the atmosphere, either. I did not know that some of these folks got kicked off until I actually came here and they told me, like Megas and Estherwilnot.
Exactly! MaoSaul absolutely reads the DM’s. When I reached out to @Greeklivesmatter1970 a few weeks ago, I tried to speak in Greek 
code... basically said to “trust your gut”.
I had a mission before my exit...my goal was to tell some of my peeps to “come on down” and join #FreeAtlantis.com
