Ya same here with librewolf, ublock origin, and a VPN. Decent number of sites block and want me to turn off ad block and/or VPN.

I have a simple policy now: they stay on.

I’ll just go somewhere else that doesn’t want to track people that badly

Little late to the party but I don’t think defederation should be taken so lightly and applied on the basis of “this instance isn’t aligned with solarpunk”. MOST instances aren’t aligned with solarpunk and thats fine IMO. If a user from that instance posted something off topic in the anarchist sub then just ban that person?

IF it becomes a major problem where they are crashing subs and stuff like that then sure lets assess defederating but the whole walled garden thing is not what I came to Lemmy for.

If you don’t like crypto, dont follow those subs, if someone posts crypto offtopic on slrpnk then report it and move on.
