    Hey, no cheating!.. /jk

    It has a different moderation style and culture. Best explained in the “rules” of the instance, which is a single “be nice” and some commentary. Admins are strict, but fair, and give you a chance to change your behavior if you accidentally break the rule.

      Their philosophy and rules were a bit of TL;DR for me.

      EDIT: I guess I would be in constant fear of breaking the rules there…

        Hehe, the philosophy docs are a honeypot. There is still only a single rule, they just explain why, and what that means. But if you expect a lot of rules, I can see how their size can discourage someone.

        They’ve a added some simplified examples, but maybe the honeypot idea has its own merits… 🤔

          It worked on me… 😉 Anyway, I am quite happy here in Lemmyworld and this one also does not defederate that much. It’s possible that Beehaw is the little happy island for the people there, and I wish them to remain happy, but I prefer an instance with less rules and less defederation.
