If your instance is defederated from another instance, would it be sockpuppeting to create another account to view posts from that instance? - eviltoast

    I would think it’s fine since the new account would be subject to the rules and moderation of the new instance. Sockpuppeting is only if you are doing so for the purpose of misrepresenting your identity or to appear as multiple people (or otherwise using multiple accounts to manipulate or game the platform).

    Not an expert, just weighing in.
