It seems odd to me that Beehaw would choose a federated model if this is truly their approach.
The whole point of federation is that you'll have everyone from everywhere in your community, with exceptions for bad actors.
If Beehaw says "We want our community to be unified and work exactly as we say" it just seems like they should have forked Tildes or something?
I was talking to one of the Beehaw admins the other day and I think they mentioned they came from Tildes because they disagreed with how Deimos was running things or something like that. But Tildes is open-source and non-federated, so it seems like the more natural place to jump to for what they want to do?
Yeah, why pioneer a free and open platform just so you can curate a censored and closed echo chamber? That's why I chose Kbin, ernest seems much more interested in the success and development of the community and platform than enforcing whatever flavor of ideology.
