And it’s still hard to call it a gift, it’s more of an imposition.

Users are free to download Threads and go lick zucc’s balls if they so desire, instances are just protecting themselves and the responsability that comes with it.
It’s getting tired reading so many zucc apologist, I swear they are bots or accounts created for that purpose
Also the ones who post 10 or more things at the same time in their community every half a day or something and fill the fucking local feed all the day
Not sure now, but at the time they had 4 moderators for the whole instance, this while the big Reddit migration was happening so it was a bomb waiting to blowup, also they’ve stated before that they want/plan to make it a safespace so they are not exactly made for federation since they’ll have to end up blocking a lot of instances to achieve that.
I love Donnie, he does machines
I miss r/doguelore and r/quiereslore
Also if instance A goes down you still have instance B.
Nah, the iphone is also overhypped and overpriced
I already blocked the bot, it’s so much spam of so many themes it drowns everything else
You said it yourself, what most people want (and seem to think this is) is a forum, not a fediverse. Imo a lot of the users who feel a strong need to control everything for everyone will end up leaving, since this is closer to what reddit used to be (you went to r/all and it showed ALL, not the watered down version that they forced for advertising reasons) and we all know it’s not for everyone.
Hard disagree, I keep seeing the same news/posts inside and outside Beehaw in other instances that have their own community, sometimes they even have the same name.
Or am I looking at this backwards, and they want their gated garden, absent of slugs?
You could say that, they have said more than once that they want their instance to be their safe-space, which is cool and all, if their users are all up on defederating at the fall of a leaf along with the mods that’s cool, the “problematic” part are the users that join that instance because it’s big but don’t expect them to be like that, because then they have to drop that account and create another in a different instance.
But I’ve said it more than once, until we get migration tools think of your account as disposable or prepare to keep multiple accounts to juggle servers.
That said, I think they would be happier using a forum-like server instead of the fediverse because they seem like the kind of instance to end up isolating themselves.
I still hate websites watermarks, creators watermarks are ok (like comics or art)
I’ve noticed they post a lot of asians and slim/flat women, then the other extreme of posting fat ones. I like thicc and curvy, but I don’t mean fat so I haven’t found a community for me.
Hopefully some time in the future.
I remember some news about he getting too buddy-buddy with Facebook, it wouldn’t surprise me at all.
I think downvotes are ok as long as they show the real ammounts along the upvotes, besides there’s no karma here.
Also for those that say people could abuse downvotes to bury discussion, well guess what? People abuse upvotes too to increase their visibility, then we should disable upvotes so they can’t be abused either, right?
I think it’s ok if an instance decides to disable them (or both) if they don’t want or can’t deal with being downvoted, but trying to spread it to other instances is just trying to create a circlejerk.
I’m using Stylus for Firefox and it works so far
Seriously, hate that now people call everything a meme, they don’t even try to make it at least funny.
