I noticed that when I attempt to subscribe to beehaw subs, it seems to be stuck on pending. This has been the case for a couple hours now. Is this expected behavior? I think I read somewhere that beehaw was defederating. Perhaps this is the reason it’s not working?
What have I missed, why are they defederated? load / duplicate communities?
tldr version is beehaw doesn’t like Lemmy world
They said they just didn’t like the amount of moderation work lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works give them. Both these instances allow for joining without an application, and the amount of users that break their rules was just too much for them. They said they would like to revert this decision when they can handle the moderation again, but currently the Lemmy tools for moderation are not so great.
Reminds me of highschool there are cliques now huh :D
beehaw decided it. They couldn’t handle the moderation iirc
