Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

I dunno. I just feel less like I'm experiencing a fun new tool for communication the last few weeks. The communities here on Beehaw are still great and fantastic and aren't what I'm bothered by. It's just when I venture out in the world (which I often do) that I notice conversations are much more argumentative than I remember them being.

How's everyone else doing? Is this a minor vibez check?

I think they might be referring to the CSAM attack. Someone apparently flooded lemmy.world with CSAM images and a lot of people inadvertently saw them.

I think we're safe on Beehaw but I'm not opening any inline image links I see on the fediverse just in case.

Yes you are correct, that is what I'm referring to. If you were on a Beehaw account at that time, you will have had no exposure to those images, since Beehaw is defederated.

Definitely had no exposure, just saw people who federate with both us and .world talking about it. I'm being cautious in case it happens to another instance, though.
