Why YSK: Beehaw defederated from Lemmy.World and Sh.itjust.works effectively shadowbanning anyone from those instances. You will not be able to interact with their users or posts.
Edit: A lot of people are asking why Beehaw did this. I want to keep this post informational and not color it with my personal opinion. I am adding a link to the Beehaw announcement if you are interested in reading it, you can form your own views. https://beehaw.org/post/567170
The person you responded to said nothing about being “owed” anything.
What do you think their point was, then? 🤔
That the defederation was a significant action?
I guess that’s where our opinions differ. Seems like it should be just a blip when someone wants to take their ball and go home. Just choose another ball, man.
But it wasn’t.
Ah, but it can be. WE are literally the community builders here. Beehaw is not part of our community so just look and post at lemmy.world, or lemmy.ml, or lemmy.ca, or sh.itjust.works, or any other instance. To me, this is literally why this YSK post exists - to let people know to focus on conversations outside of that instance.
