So long as the federation of servers is based on the whim of the few people who own the instances, the server you choose is most currently relevant. The people running these communities need to realize that cutting of groups just because you don't agree with them or have personal issues with them is going to cause an extremely fragmented experience, alienating new users who don't understand the landscape this ensuring nothing but monolithic servers and communities exist and no small communities will ever be populated.
