What is stopping people to interact cross instance? That is the very idea of the Fediverse to allow to interact with people from other instances.
I understand that the current opt-in federation model of Lemmy somewhat limits this, but I think a reasonably well moderated libertarian instance would be allowed to federate with lemmy.ml.
But making separate instances is very helpful in moderation and "pruning" the network to prevent an alt-right take-over as has happened with so many other non-mainstream social media.
