If so, why? Just to have your own private server for you and friends, or to spin up a public server for a specific topic?
Probably, if there isn’t a good one yet. I’m planning on forking lemmy and an instance with some patches - like removing the childish “slur filter” and other awful design decisions that by the looks of it are not going to be addressed ever.
I’m not very fond of current administration which seems very socially inept which is kinda ironic for a social network project. I’d kinda prefer more community focused, apolitical and friendlier community which hopefully will happen with federation support if it’s ever implemented.
Edit: so many down-votes and admin replies just kinda proves my point here 🙄
Why would you want an “apolitical” community if most of your posts here are political? You seem to want an instance that only allows your political side, not an apolitical instance.
And the only way for an instance to be apolitical is to prohibit any and all discussions of politics (prohibiting all politics from this instance would do no good, politics are a significant part of society). Otherwise, there always will be some kind of political bias in the community.
Most of my posts are political because 90% of posts on lemmy are political. That’s like asking why most of your purchases are cheeses at the cheese shop 😂
In fact if you take a look at my profile I’d argue it’s far from being most of my posts (I’m not even subscribed to a single political community). I even moderate multiple communities not a single one of which is political.

uh, I’m not sure that those two goals go hand in hand. How exactly would the ability to post slurs be beneficial to a friendlier discourse on your instance?
You somehow imply that swearing is the opposite of friendlyness. Just think for a moment where do you swear the most? Amongst friends! 😁
