Recently bough an e-ink reader for this exact reason. I’m reading for the first time in almost 10 years and I am falling asleep way quicker and getting better sleep than i have in a loooong time. Best $100 ive spent in awhile.

Ah, that would make sense. I could definitely see that being annoying, especially considering the sheer number of users on that instance.

What’s the reason for defederating from them? Aren’t they like the original Masto instance? What kind of moderation issues are going on there?
