haven’t investigated further if the instance is overall rightwing the way dog-genitals . com is.

    The instance is (effectively) one person, the admin, who makes lots of posts a day. Compare their instance total stats with their personal stats to see what I mean (2.24K out of 2.25K posts are by them).

    As far as I know, there are 3 ‘right-wing’ instances (that is, a right-wing admin and/or strongly right-wing users), the 3rd being bakchodi, who are very large but do not currently federate with any instances. You could also count goldandblack.us.to, but that is simply a reddit mirror bot rather than a community.

    As a side-note, I don’t think an admin being anti-trans should be used as the sole explanation for calling the instance right-wing, a warning sign at best. The bottom line is the entire community (i.e. the admin) posts mostly typical liberalist right-wing content. This is evident through many of the articles source sites (breitbart, thefederalist) and the sidebars buzzwords (‘crony capitalists’, ‘elites’). Similarly to wolfballs, their admin is tolerant of other instances and claims a neutral platform (an important part of their similar ideological beliefs in personal freedoms) but they are ultimately creating and hosting unambiguously ‘right-wing’ communities.

    Also, may I ask why you are censoring names of sites?

      They were being censored a few posts down, I figure for “Don’t post links to sign up pages or anything like that, otherwise right wingers might eventually start watching this community to discover and recruit.”
