What are your thoughts on Beehaw defederating? (lemm.ee)

My first account on the fediverse was on Beehaw and I was happy with it, but defederating from two of the largest instances gave me a reason to find a new instance. Personally I understand and respect the decision -that is the point of the fediverse afterall.

They had a lot of good communities that will not be cut off from the fastest growing instances which will make things tough to rebuild I think.

Just moved here from Beehaw.

I understand what they're trying to do and wish them luck, it's just not my preference to be forcibly isolated like that. The problem is that they're doing this immediately after a sharp uptick in signups, which means a LOT of people just got used to finding their way around Lemmy only for it to be unexpectedly taken away.

My account on lemmy.world is basically unaffected because there's alternatives to all big communities. But my account actually on Beehaw was the one that was punished, which makes me wonder how well they thought it all through.

Oh well onwards and upwards. Hi lemm.ee!
