And from lemmy.world?
BeeHaw went full Reddit powermod level of power-tripping.
So you’re saying it would be fun to show up on beehaw, flip everyone the finger, and leave.
They’re defederated from virtually everyone. They may as well just use phpbb at this point.

idk I think even with federation fully disabled, Lemmy is still better than phpbb
When Reddit announced their API thing, I moved to beehaw (LW didn’t exist) and it was cool! Then they defederated from instance one by one… So I opened an account on LW.
Beehaw is about dead, 70 users per day…
Like a plunger, always bringing up old shit
im sure you can find more info on beehaw, but really they just wanted to avoid a metric tonne of negative influencing (political or otherwise) and drama.
That’s fair.
Wonder why they haven’t done the same with lemmy.ml too? Given how inflammatory it is there
that is a great question.
part of what pushed me into running a public instance was their closed stance. i appreciated their genial camaraderie, but i dont like being closed off.
It’s interesting how the most open instances aren’t the biggest ones with no user restrictions, but the smaller instances that no one has issues with. I moved away from LW because of performance issues, but I’m happy to be able to see both LW posts and BH posts. Sopuli has defederated from some instances, but I’m happy with their choices so it’s as unrestricted as I want it to be. Others would choose an even less restrictive/restricted small instance, or like yourself just run your own to have complete freedom.
