I’m a conservative. I don’t mind the liberal stuff here. It’s good to learn the other side, but I don’t want a liberal echo chamber. I’d like to be more politically balanced in the fediverse. Is there any way I can do that?

    There are conservatives on Mastodon, but the rest of the Fediverse defederates the explicitly conservative instances. The big ones are Gab, Parler, and TruthSocial, which don’t seem to federate with anybody at all. (I would advise against looking them up, because they have a rather high concentration of Nazis).

      Oh I’m fully aware of Gab. I stumbled upon on one of their instances that was blocked from lemmy.world. Wasn’t sure if it was actually a Gab instance but it sure as shit was.

      Personally, I quite enjoy perusing the memes on the myriad of conspiracy theories they like to peddle. The whole website is a guilty pleasure of mine.

      I thought gab pulled the plug on federation because their goal wasn’t to be federated in the first place, it was just a force themselves on others and be accessible from the Play store.
