As a somewhat negligent mastodon admin, my opinion is that instances follow a bell curve.

one user: fascist

10-500 users: based

500+ users: exponentially fascist (starting at a low value)

The big instances can be a good place to get your feet wet, but they all strive to be "general interest" (or "general interest, but for computer touchers") and constantly find themselves hamstrung by stuff like this.

I find big mastodon instances are mostly infested by radlibs.
