Hello All, First time poster here. I would just like to say that i tried signing up for beehaw.org but they have some kind of purity test that reminds me of Reddit. Don’t ever sign up for beehaw, that is going to be one hell of a drama filled instance.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Ironically all of the drama and complaining seems to be coming from instances outside of Beehaw, being dramatic and complaining about Beehaw. The content there is actually good.

[–] gila 8 points 1 year ago

Really it's just drama caused by the platform not maturing yet. Beehaw's reasons behind defederating from large instances like lemmy.world are valid, but it's not like other instances made them do it. It's a choice they made to be able to create the space they want in lieu of proper mod tools. Hope they realise it won't be an overnight fix, and the longer they stick to their guns the greater the risk of their communities fizzling out, which would be a shame as I agree they are some of the best.

Quite agreed. It really doesn't take much more effort to sign up under their system, but it seems people on other instances love complaining about things they know nothing about.

I noticed the same thing about North Korea. You never hear anyone complaining about dictatorship inside the country.

This is a false dichotomy at best and ragebait at worse. Do better

Whatever lies you need to tell yourself.

I tried to sign up for beehaw… they rejected my application. Glad they did, I really enjoy lemmy.world!

[–] N00dle 5 points 1 year ago

I'm starting to get curious about the beehaw sign up process. I think I'm gonna try signing up just for the hell of it.
