You choose what instance you are on. Quit the pseudointellectual whining. (sh.itjust.works)

No server operator needs to federate with you.
No server operator needs to tolerate things they don't want on their instance.
No user of an instance needs to personally curate their own extensive never ending blocklist of users and channels they don't want to see.

Quit your pseudo-intellectual whining and choose what instance(s) work for you. If you think regularly interacting with shit content somehow helps you stay out of an echo chamber then go ahead and make a second account on those garbage instances full of hateful people. Then you can read both the decent servers and the trash ones and be the fedora wearing ackshually right fair and balanced uber nerd you always wanted to be.

Edit: The huge number of upvotes on this post compared to the low numbers on the whiney imposers' posts is proof of exactly where this community places its priorities.

Nerds snatching defeat out of the jaws of victory.

Correct. But it starts with federation, next it's hard forks in the code. Mastadon added code to block Gab by default and it could only be removed with a code change.

Wow Gab must be really disliked by the wide majority of people to end up in such a situation. They should reflect on why this is.
