I don’t understand how Lemmy.world developers managed to surpass both Lemmy.ml and Beehaw.org instances in user activity.

    Beehaw is also… very particular. From what I can tell they want to encourage and magnify the closed-off, echo-chamber part of reddit.

      Yeah, when I was looking for a post-redit home I checked out beehaw.

      Strike 1: no downvotes

      Strike 2: application period to create an account

      Strike 3: I read the beehaw mod’s “philosophy” posts and I got the general idea of what they were saying, but they just sounded a little… odd. Like they were thinking things through and were going around in circles without really getting anywhere. By contrast, the tildes.net philosophy posts seemed well-thought-out and very readable.

        Their application questions are also kinda weird. I was gonna sign up for beehaw and the application really turned me off.
