To add to what others have said, the reason beehaw defederated is because they have particular rules (eg no downvotes) that they’re very strict about to ensure that their instance is the safe space they want it to be. It’s not so much that lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works users were acting up against beehaw, just that beehaw expects users to be very well behaved in their instance.
I have noticed a trend within myself, similar to out of state plates, that once I notice one rude user from an instance I spend a few days seeing other users from that instance being rude and goings “figures”
never mind I encounter many perfectly pleasant users from that instance
Beehaw defederated everyone lmao
Nah there are some. Very, very few have de-feded from us (most have done so because of buggy federation with lemmy in general), but we’ve de-feded from a handful of instances, just because they were too spammy.

Looks like you guys have defederated from four instances. Of these I only know burggit and well… I can’t say I blame you for that.
My experience on Beehaw so far is that 80% of them are nice and 20% of them are Portlandia characters.
Just popping up real fast to say, it’s a pleasure seeing screenshots of my site while randomly scrolling through my feed. Thanks for using it!
Sure looks like it. Is that not the case? I’m not familiar with your instance.
I don’t know, I just figured someone would have. I guess we’re just a flyover instance.
The short version is because the mods there are very special (in abad way) and like to gatekeep their echochamber as much as possible.
The long one is because they have a vision where their platform is more safe to its users which should be more likeminded individuals and would like to keep it as true and safe as possible acording to their vision, which im not sure what it really is, from what i heard is that they are very left leaning but in an extreme way and dont like discidents, so anyone thats not as likeminded as them is just straight up not welcome then. They probably call disicidents harasers and just ban them. So an echochamber.
Now officially what they said is that everybody but them sucks at moderating and wont refederate untill they dont suck anymore. They say thats because everyone doesnt have sophisticated tools for moderating but i think they just whant everyone to enforce their ideals everywhere else, and if thats the case i believe we are better of without them.
Well i rather be called a wanker and get downvoted to oblivion for commenting unpopular comments than to get straight up banned for it. Thats the type of shit that made me leave reddit instead of keep fighting overly sensitive jannies and nearsighted leadership. It just gets old really fast, and its no way to live.
Your comments so far are uninformed drivel and speculation, which only gets made worse by the fact that the rules of the instance are public for anyone to see. In practice, the mods have too much leniency in many cases, and unlike other communities, allow for actually fixing your behavior (or drunken comments), instead of pulling Reddit shit like banning you for appealing a random suspension.
