The "hardest" parts are finding an instance and then blocking out some of the shitpost noise (which, to some, isn't an issue)

Like I said above to Tequila:

Basically you have 3 timelines: Personal, Local, and Federated

• Personal: Just the people you've specifically chosen to follow
• Local: Just the people who use the same instance as you
• Federated: Kinda like a global TL, minus any instances that your own has blocked (e.g. most instances have blocked nazi instances, gab, etc.)

Here's a page to help you find an instance that suits you: https://joinmastodon.org/communities

Edit: A couple specifically anarchist instances I know of: kolectiva.social, and anarchism.space (currently invite only)
