spirals

Looks like I made a leap there that was incorrect, I was looking at a list of migrated subs and assumed the mods were migrating with it. Sorry about that. Well another reason not to use beehaw, control freaks that don't let you open your own community.

I guess I'm frustrated with the communities that decided to chose beehaw really, some of the big subs announced they would now be moderating a replacement community on beehaw. It makes me want to shake them and ask why the fuck did they pick beehaw. If beehaw wants to become a great firewall, whatever it only makes me never want an account on there because I want to choose which instances to interact with, not the admins. But now I would have to find new communities to replace the ones taken away by beehaw admins. Any communities I have created can't be interacted by beehaw users and I can't interact with any communities on beehaw. I've already read a comment about a person from beehaw who now can't continue to mod a community on lemmy.world. The nuke action was not appropriate imo. The beehaw admins also refuse to delegate, they only want 4 people to comb through every single post and comment. This is insane for 4 people to do.

I also don't see this as a temporary measure, they want the lemmy devs to implement the exact mod tools they want otherwise they won't unblock my instance. I find that unlikely to happen any time soon, if ever, due to how open source projects work. Might as well as have told everyone it is permanent and they don't care instead of giving a bs reason. Why would I bother making an account on a different server at this point when that server can easily be the next one beehaw blocks? At what point does beehaw decide to just defederate because they can't handle interacting with other instances? I have taken the news very poorly and have nothing but disdain for the admins there.

Lol every time I read an announcement by these guys it feels off-putting. I thought I was a progressive but reading this and the comments makes me feel like I am the furthest thing from progressive if this is what they believe. Every time they mention a safe space, I wonder if they are trying to make safe spaces seem like a joke because that's the vibe I'm getting. Safe spaces are for victims, not for trying to create a great wall of beehaw "ideals."

This is exactly what I was complaining about when they released that long winded post. Micro managing an entire instance is not going to work, they need to delegate to others. I did not like the idea of them blocking so many instances and now we're blocked because of "trolls." I like the open sign-ups, I wouldn't have been able to get an account otherwise.

Very insightful, dairy industry propaganda is very vast.

Yes.

Crashes jerboa

[!community@instance](instance/c/community)

Opens the community in a new browser where you are not logged in

!community@instance

Does not work, thinks it is an email address and prompts to open in your email app

The problem is jerboa, I believe it is being looked into by the devs

Idk I am not smart and only took 1 year of computer science but I caught on pretty quickly. The instances vs community thing was easy to comprehend. The only thing that confused me was how Mastodon, lemmy, and kbin interact. I thought I needed a separate account for kbin but turns out I don't, for the most part at least. I'm not interested in Twitter so I haven't looked into Mastodon, but it's probably the same.

I'm disabled, no country will have me. I'm stuck in the US for good even though I hate it.

I had 9k on my recent account, I got most of it from one post on a drama sub. I was mostly a lurker that changed accounts periodically whenever I felt paranoid, was on reddit for 7 years.

Drugs should be decriminalized, I don't see how a kid with a hard drug problem will be helped by being charged and thrown in juvie. They should instead go through drug rehab. But this is coming from a non-canadian, I don't know how their system works.

Pixelfed is supposed to be good, haven't tried it.
