Idk what the culture is over there but it was just a bit funny to see the entire thread I was replying to just removed. Like that doesn’t happen here on kbin lmao. a bit of a culture clash there I guess.
I wonder if that’s the norm for lemmy and beehaw? Here on kbin basically nothing is removed it seems. at least for now.
Beehaw has strict instance-wide moderation policies (which don’t really work in a federated model tbh, but they haven’t seemed to realize as such yet).
Beehaw’s trying to funnel Reddit-related stories into a single megathread. However, if people aren’t subscribed to that community on their instance, they don’t see the megathread and don’t know to post in it.
Simply put - while Beehaw is a nice place, their moderation style is at odds with much of the fediverse. I wouldn’t be surprised if Beehaw started defederating fairly broadly to prevent users from other instances coming in to their communities without respecting their rules and standards.
I also wouldn’t be surprised to see Beehaw remove themselves from federation entirely, since they very much want to be their own thing.
