Honestly, I agree. I've cleaned up the thread a bit but it still seems pretty nasty.
I've personally had the opinion that we should go for a more isolationist approach with an allow-list when we move away from Lemmy and into Sublinks. I think it's worth trying.
Personally, I really wish we could have an invite system, I feel like it'd be better than asking a friend to fill a form - that feels a bit rough. It would also encourage word of mouth and organic growth imo. And people tend to have likeminded friends so it would probably help form culture.
As a side note, I think we need some new blood in moderation teams, I think some people have moved on.
If you go with the invite approach, I would desperately like to join you despite not being on beehaw itself at the moment. I was actually planning to sign up for the ultra-curated experience, after finding that both “uncurated” and “lightly curated” are not awesome for me, but then I came across this info a few days back, and figured I should hold off; Idk what your policy is at the moment for taking new users if you plan to move.
Increasingly I’m disenchanted with Lemmy as a whole, it doesn’t feel welcoming or communal, and would like to go with you when you move to a different fedi platform, but because I’m not part of your server now, I have no idea when that’s going to happen or anything. And I don’t want to miss out :(
I think we would probably keep applications to allow people who may not have friends that can invite them here. We may be more strict with the answers though.
I, personally would still like to allowlist places which I think are pretty good. Though, ideally I would like one-way federation so beeple can still explore places which don't necessarily meet the standard we set for allowlist.
