There are a lot of tanky posts coming from lemmy.ml. Their whole purpose seems to be to troll and spread their bullshit far and wide. They are nearly as bad as the alt-right. They argue in bad faith and celebrate authoritarian oppression. The beehaw mods might want to consider defederating.

I saw your post that you downloaded Voyager.

I love Voyager, but if you already haven't noticed, Voyager stopped supporting the version of Lemmy that beehaw uses. If you intend to stay on Lemmy, and/or use Voyager, then beehaw probably isn't the best choice, since beehaw will not be updating Lemmy versions, and plans to eventually leave Lemmy.

That said, beehaw is a great community, just bear the above in mind before making such a switch. I will probably join another instance when beehaw's lemmy instance closes down, but until then, I have great respect for beehaw's team, the community they have built, and generally making this a safe place for it's users, so I will likely stay until that switch happens.

Thank you! I made a shortcut directly to the Beehaw website. I have an account there and one on lemm.ee as well. I’ve only blocked two users and one instance and the experience is so much better. Thanks for your advice!
