Five of those were from me. Hedging my bets across multiple instances. Can't imagine I'm the only one?

[–] c2h6@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Five?? I just have an nsfw and a sfw one.

Why bother hedging?

As an example, Beehaw just de-federated from lemmy.world and from sh.itjust.works. But since I primarily drop anchor at startrek.website (and since I've replicated my subscriptions across all my accounts), I just flip over to that account and still have access to everything.

[–] c2h6@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh? Why did beehaw defederate? Does that mean beehaw is cut off from everyone else?

[–] JWBananas@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Expected reasons. Federated systems make moderation more difficult, compounded with poor availability of moderation tools on the platform today. https://beehaw.org/post/567170

Damn most of my communities were from beehaw. I didn't join the instance to spare the server load, but now I think I might join it directly since I don't want to make another account on a different instance that may get defederated later on down the line.

Ugh, Beehaw denied my registration so I guess just can't get their content anymore.

[–] scutiger@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

You can access their content, but you can't really participate, unless you have an account on one of the instances they're still federated with.

[–] rockstarashes@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Damn, I just assumed they were screening to ensure real users acting in good faith. Didn't expect them to actually be rejecting people.

[–] Zoness@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think they're pretty serious about the last essay part.

[–] BrooklynRage@lemmy.world -2 points 1 year ago

They had you write an essay good lord thats cringe as fuck.

[–] rangerzenith@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Why did it leave lemmy.world?

[–] CosmicCleric@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

They say because of the open registration and acceptance.

[–] Lemmington@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Not at all, just started on this one in case my main goes down.
