I don’t think we should reevaluate our policy just to get 1 specific instance to refederate us…. Anyway, Beehaw’s mindset has always been exclusive and restrictive, despite being a larger instance. Even if we switch to closed registration, they may disagree with our vetting process. It’s just part of their community ideals of creating a “safe space” aligned with their “community values”. I completely disagree with their course, but it’s their instance, so whatever, their call.
That's why I'm here, actually. I like the idea of a safe space, but asking to join them to look at memes felt too much like applying for a job.
Yeah i started trying to register at .ml then Beehaw and was immediately put off about the user registration. Like dude let me join or don't but open questions with unclear reasons and motives is super off putting, especially when questions are like:
how do you wish to contribute? I don't know I have not stated using your space yet, I don't have a feel for the server, nor the types of posts or communitiea available.
What communitiea are you going to join/use? I don't know, whichever ones stand out as interesting, seriously get out of my business lol.
