Beehaw* defederated us? - sh.itjust.works

I can completely understand why they did but it really sucks that it had to happen. Hopefully, as the Fediverse grows, better tools are made available so instances don't need to defederate from each other.

With that said, I think it's a pretty amazing concept that they can. Terrible, sure, but nonetheless amazing.

I also wasn't aware that other instances vetted their users? This was the first one I picked. Is there a plan to address the issues beehaw brought up?

With that said, I think it’s a pretty amazing concept that they can. Terrible, sure, but nonetheless amazing.

I've been calling it a double-edged sword from the moment I knew that could happen in Mastodon and after I joined Lemmy, we see as normal to block lemmygrad from the beginning and that's understandable, but if an owner goes block-happy they could leave a lot of people stranded and inside their echo-chamber.
They'd be losing everything then and would be forced to migrate to other instance or create their own which may be too much as time goes by and people post more and more.

I said this from the beginning but until we get migration tools to carry our content with us to other instance, think of your account as disposable.

I think the migration tools are prob in the plans. Bug fixes/app fixes seem to be the biggest priority though at the moment.
The software right now is extremely lacking in many aspects that it's hard to pin point which priority should be higher than other (specially since I ain't helping to it), but yeah I assume there appeared so many bugs when the waves started that we can only be patient.

I think there are some bugs that are causing server issues, which is why I said it's a priority. Idk rust, this was just from a quick check at the issues on github.

There's also a bug which make old posts stay on your homepage for too long, which can be annoying. I think they have added a bugfix for the next release. So, hopefully will be gone soon.

So literally "Suffering from success"
