reminds me of the people who got pissed when we defederated from a few instances. I guess they're just angry that they don't have access to something other people do, even if they won't use it.
They're so accustomed to centralised social media that allows them to troll and bait without caring for the people in those platforms, that, when, they find instances here, like Beehaw, that do not want to have contact with people and instances that promote that type of attitude, they feel confused and betrayed.
They expected the fediverse, Lemmy, Beehaw to be a replacement for Reddit, not only as content/link/information aggregation platform, but as a place to continue acting like they acted on Reddit with no consideration or understanding that they aren't in Reddit anymore.
The fact that many are calling Beehaw admin/mod team "snobby" "snowflakes", etc just says it all
I even saw one that called them "oversensitive ninnies" and it was weird how they didn't make the connection as to why they defederated
I mean, one of my first posts here was arguing with a user who said that "using the word 'minorities' is offensive since it doesn't include everybody" and kept arguing points like that.
Then they huffed and lamented that "clearly [they were] not welcome here."
I half-expected a "so much for the tolerant left!" before they self-exiled.
Poor little guy! This place is obviously far too rough of a neighborhood for them to be comfortable!
That has to be one of the stupidest things I've read in a while
You know what? I was mistaken here. They were offended that someone brought up the governor of Florida and equated it to comparing them to governor of Florida.
Their point was "using the word 'minorities' means that you have a bias political agenda."
So my point still stands. And this was some of their comments/replies.
