[Serious] Why did Beehaw defederate from Lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works for poor moderation and not lemm.ee and discuss.online?
You're viewing a single thread.
If Discuss.online has open signups I definitely am of the opinion that we should defederate from them. Not really much point in having human-verified signups if we federate with instances that allow people to make as many accounts as they could ever want.
You as a user can block instances. So, those that want higher moderation can have it and those that want less can have it. When an instance bleeds toxicity, it makes sense to ban it for everyone.
Some users value the anonymity of open sign ups. Also, as the fediverse grows, it will become increasingly impossible to track which instances have which policies when anyone can spin one up at will.

Sadly we cannot on beehaw, its version is too old.
Oh, I forgot beehaw was not updating while they consider other platforms. I presume you will be able to id they decide to stay on Lemmy.
