Well beehaw defederated Lemmy.world so you won’t see that stuff. Well they won’t see yours anyways so you won’t get to interact with them.

I honestly think we should just ditch beehaw at this point, this move will just make things way more complicated and probably keep many people from bothering to learn how it all works. You shouldn't have to visit 3-4 different sites to see the most popular lemmy content

I agree, they don't deserve to be one of the popular instances. They gathered a large userbase and just isolated it. If they wanted to be some special safe space, they should've specified that in the beginning instead of overcomplicating everything the way they did. People keep saying it's their choice, and it is, but in the same way it's Reddit's choice to kill off 3rd party apps.

Thank you! That's fucking dumb though. Just more of the same I've seen everywhere else on Lemmy, "I know this isn't Reddit or designed to be Reddit and was explicitly designed to NOT be Reddit, but WHY ISN'T IT REDDIT AND WHEN WILL IT BE REDDIT?!"

Seriously, half that post is "While we left a central authority to escape central authority, we will be working until this becomes a central authority to avoid all the things about decentralization that make it decentralized"

Really wish all the people who want a Reddit clone would just........go to one of the Reddit clones.

They describe their philosophy as semi-authoritarianism, just some benevolent dictators lmao.

"We want Reddit but we couldn't go to a Reddit clone because we wanted a Reddit clone WE were in charge of but coding is hard"

It's an interesting situation, defederating.

Defederated instances can see the instance that cut them off and can comment, but they (beehaw in this case) won't see their comments. However, if they refederate later when better mod tools exist, all the comments will (be able to) flood in, right?

If so, they'll need to be able to handle it in some way that enables them to maintain compatibility with their instance ethos.
