YSK: If you're on Lemmy.World or Sh.itjust.works you should not subscribe to any Beehaw communities - eviltoast

Why YSK: Beehaw defederated from Lemmy.World and Sh.itjust.works effectively shadowbanning anyone from those instances. You will not be able to interact with their users or posts.

Edit: A lot of people are asking why Beehaw did this. I want to keep this post informational and not color it with my personal opinion. I am adding a link to the Beehaw announcement if you are interested in reading it, you can form your own views. https://beehaw.org/post/567170

    Until the instance you choose to set up on ends up in a feud with any, or all of those instances.

    The whole fediverse experiment is going to end up with a number of small, highly segregated communities, and even more political polarization. I guess if you want to live in an echo chamber, a federated environment is the best way to go about it.

      I don’t think so, Lemmy is just going through growing pains. Those instances are already talking about refederating.
