Cory Doctorow ( @pluralisticCory Doctorow ) talks about one of the important features of the Fediverse (and Mastodon) being — account migration.

I.e., being able to leave a "bad" instance server (or whatever) for a "better" one.

...

( @reiver@reiver ⊼ (Charles) note: I highly agree with this. And, have wrote and talked about this elsewhere.)

If the instance makes no effort at moderation, they will get defederated, and the users may not notice.

The users need to pay attention, and when they start seeing the lack of moderation, then that should be their hint to move to another instance.

If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://infosec.exchange/users/SpaceLifeForm/statuses/114632800191340919 on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)
