    How do you stop really nasty stuff from getting to your instance?

    (I know nothing about how and when fediverse transfers data)

      Since I am on a single user instance, the instance receives only stuff from the communities I subscribe to.

      This means that I just select what I am interested in.

      So far after over 1 year I never seen a single “dangerous” piece of stuff, so I think the risk is a bit overstated.

      The downside is that my “all/everything” feed is identical to my subscribed feed, bummer.

      As someone who also runs a single user instance, lemmy uses the protocol activitupub, and the way I federate my server is auto federate with any instance federated by piefed.social bc I like rimu@piefed.social ethics.
