@Julie@social.coop “Make your own instance” is especially unhelpful to the targets of abuse because you’re just telling them to create a really attractive attack surface. Better to have a crap ton of instances with good policies and active moderation teams.
“Make your own instance” is for people with money and access and time who want to make their own rules or nerd out about something specific, it’s a totally different problem.

@whetstone@romancelandia.club @Julie@social.coop It would be great if all the instances protected #Jews, but the fact is that on the Fediverse, Jews are subject to the same kind of hate and harassment that we often receive on traditional large social media. I complain to instances when #antisemitism comes up, and sometimes it's addressed, and other times, it isn't, because, sadly #JewsDontCount in the eyes of many (even well intentioned) instance operators. So I did start a new instance, for this marginalized community.
