I started moving from Reddit to Lemmy a few days ago, and since then I've been forcing myself to spend time here and getting myself used to it. I quickly checked the list of popular instances and decided to join lemmy.world and not beehaw because I didn't like their decision of defederating other big lemmy instances.

I've been lurking lemmy.world for a bunch of days, and I like it enough not to look back at Reddit anymore, so props to that. It feels a bit chaotic though, with many tiny communities being created all the time with very few post and comments in them.

Today I decided to take a look at beehaw's and in perspective it feels so organized and content rich that I'm quite impressed.

I guess it comes with a big amount of moderation and organized content creation work and I wonder how sustainable is that in the long run, but props to them so far for the project!

What do you think about beehaw?

Well I said that I wanted to move from reddit out of protest, I am interested in exploring their communities, and that I generally don't post but I vote and comment occasionally.

So they either have terrible judgement to think of me as a bot or spammer, or there is some other reason. I mean, that's their prerogative, but it is discouraging.
