I would say so, yes.

infosec.exchange is hosted in the EU (via Hetzner) and has a focus on security, 
encryption etc. without being prescriptive. I haven’t seen any abuse on it 
personally, and they have fediblocked a significant list of known hate sites. 
It’s run by Jerry Bell, who’s pretty respectable (CISO of IBMCloud), and a 
significant fraction of the security/encryption people I follow(ed) on Twitter 
use it. You can support it financially via liberapay.com

(other security/foss themed mastodon sites are available. YMMV etc etc)
