I specifically just deleted my beehaw account and created one here because of this... This move makes me reconsider this whole lemmy thing.

I find it really frustrating to build up a feed of content, only to lose it when moderator fights begin. What servers are next? Which one do I join to get the most content?

I want this to succeed but I don't know how I can recommend it to people today, since they're going to ask the same questions.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Exactly! And the idea that I fully cannot see other servers, or never interact with them anymore feels like wasted time.

Power tripping as always. Give mods a little power and this is what you get. What they want 24/7

yeah, was starting to like it here, but honestly if any instance will just defederate the second something inconvenient happens... we won't have a site with good content that will keep people around

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

My thoughts exactly

But isn't that good? It means you have much more freedom now, you can make communities, post more stuff, don't have to follow a non existant set of rules.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

That's true but there are nuanced social consequences for the entire group because of the actions one or a few individuals. The moderation model of Lemmy will be different and needs to start at the home instance. Because all it takes is a few people to act up and suddenly your instance has no content.

To an extend. It's more concerning that I can build up my user, interacting with other communities, building my network and suddenly I loose all that because my server suddenly decides it no longer want to interact with other servers.

hate to say that's on you, dude. You should look at how that instance works with others.

Apparently migration is in the works, so you should be able to keep your beehaw account.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Sure is on me for choosing poorly. However I'm happy to hear that migration is in the works.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Can’t predict the future. Can’t control where new communities end up growing organically.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Migration is in the works, but it's not a priority.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

But muh freedoms

Yeah, me as well. Seems kbin has a way more open minded view on things. They don't defederate from anyone, which suits me just fine. I wouldn't like to defederated from anyone, including lemmygrad. There are some interesting reads over there (at least for me).
