I'm not saying Local feed in general, but showing users the Local feed first. Because I'm speaking about the average user, who will usually go with the default settings. Then this user will only see content of their instance and that's bad.
I'm always speaking about the average user. Not even the average Lemmy-User currently but let's say: non-nerdy users that will be more present in the future. They don't tinker with settings and maybe switch instances if they don't like their experience. Choosing default settings is therefore important.
Every admin has the motivation for their instance to survive. They need to have some handle to ensure that. As long as it is transparent and applies to basic rules I'm fine with it. The rest is handled by federation.
