i see a fair amount of people complaining that they didn't understand beehaw had defederated from over 300 other instances when they just followed a link and joined the most reddit-like one.
who knows how itll shake out though. funny that the libs built the wall though.
which they showed little no interest in scaling up to overcome, preferring to focus on development. Hexbear has way more server horsepower than they do, for example. They have one VPS and its not even that big. Just different priorities. I would have preferred they take a more mixed approach to sure, limit applications but still keep the site stable, and maintain its status as a hub that won't outright ban commies... but it's not my site.
I made an account over at lemmy.world and a lot of people there thought it was so fucking stupid that they left.
"let's start a new reddit!"
"yes!"
"But this time you can only join if you like raytheon, oh and communism is bad, and you have to write us a whole ass essay about how much of a lib you are"
"Oh.."
Literally got so happy when I heard about this place. You guys rule.
disturbing that Beehaw is so dominant when I sort comms by active users

I mean, they also didn't end up in a situation where they defederated from two huge instances so the handful of moderators could deal with it so

The site was also literally failing from overload

welcome home
I imagine it'll tail off now people are bored with the reddit strike.
It's full of the worst kind of epic redditors who literally can not put down their phones to touch grass/eat ass
Most of its usership is much, much newer, like from the last two weeks, so it's not that surprising.
We can take care of it if we work together
I have no idea what Beehaw is but it sounds like and as such
