Mentioning you actually autofills both options, so no, not stalking..
Clearly you haven’t checked the modlogs because Beehaw admins literally banned 5 users of probably 20,000 at the time before deciding to defederate based on open enrollment, which kbin.social also has so don’t be surprised when your instance is also defederated.
I was actually under the impression we would no longer receive updated content from beehaw, but that doesn't seem to be the case... At any rate, if you go to https://lemmy.one/home/data_type/Post/listing_type/All/sort/TopDay/page/1, you'll see a post on their Technology community about Jellyfin. If you do the same here https://lemmy.world/home/data_type/Post/listing_type/All/sort/TopDay/page/1, it's nowhere to be found. It does look like you can still view the current content being posted on Beehaw when directly visiting those communities, but I'd be willing to bet if you try to comment, it will be like being shadow banned and only other lemmy.world users will see them. I did a quick check through on one of their most commented posts in the last 24 hours, and I don't see a single reply from anyone on lemmy.world or sh.itjust.works.
That is some damning evidence that they really did defederate over effectively nothing. I don't quite understand how the modlog works or how to filter it, so I'm glad you were able to research that and confirm because I was curious if there were a lot of records in there leading up to the defederation.
I suppose you could always be the change you want to see in the world and create a new community for your content. Your posts would make a great introduction, and then you can always cross post it elsewhere for better visibility
I just want to know why only some of the large communities were hit. My best guess so far from memory is lemmy.ml was struggling to stay online and federated during that time, and kbin.social had their Cloudflare DDOS protection enabled breaking federation so maybe they were not an immediate concern on the day the announcement was made. I've no clue why they have not since defederated with lemmy.ml and kbin.social since both are currently federating with everyone.
As far as refederating with Beehaw.org goes, lemmy.world is only defederated with one unrelated instance so we never actually stopped federating with them. It's just a one way street stuck in time since we get no new content.
None of the writing communities in the fediverse seem appropriate, but I did make this general community for just such occasions so feel free to drop it here!
I just checked, and Beehaw has defederated with 388 instances. Either the fediverse is overrun with nazis, or you're making a massive generalization and Beehaw is being ridiculous.
@[email protected] the fact you have an account on lemmy.world you opened 10 days ago before Beehaw defederated it is quite ironic. They literally only defederated lemmy.world because of the massive influx of new users from Reddit and the open enrollment. There was no moderation to be performed as far as I've seen. As a matter of fact, your comment above is quite literally the most inflammatory comment I have seen yet while browsing the fediverse in the last week so maybe Beehaw should defederate with kbin.social? It's got the same influx of new users and open enrollment. kbin.social was almost certainly only spared because at the time they weren't federating with anyone due to the DDOS protection from Cloudflare. How utterly ridiculous.
Yeah lol. Probably for the best
Interesting read about the 5 customer segments. Thanks!
Beehaw banned 5 users from lemmy.world of like 20,000 and decided to defederate (block) the entire instance (server). You’re posting on a copy stored locally and only other lemmy.world users will see your comments.
