MODERATORS
 

Primarily I'm wondering if certain instances have reputations that might color what people think about my community just by virtue of it being hosted on a particular instance.

There's also the question of instance-wide content moderation or something, not like I'm trying to be edgy, but like some instances might not like curse words or discussions about heavy topics like suicide, or something.

Also I'm wondering if it's somehow harder for people from other instances to find communities (I understand that subscribing is easy, but finding may be different?)

Appreciate details...

Wait, I see community posts on instances that are defederated with lemmy.world. is It because I had to search for them and subscribe?

Edit: how are defederated instance's posts crossposted on Lemmy.world?
