    Reading through the comments in their post I’m losing the little sympathy I was feeling. It looks like the moderation tool they are hoping for is one that allows their users to access other communities while preventing the other communities from accessing beehaw. That feels shortsighted and selfish, and I would think most communities on that end on the block would block them reciprocally.

      Was this in the comments of the defederation post or one of the other ones? I’m just curious to read it myself.

            I think the comment they were referring to is this one: #264724

            BTW FYI the two links you posted are not to the same comment. The second one is from a total different discussion too.

            The comment id varies from instance to instance.

              Jerboa doesn’t take me to the comment directly but I’m going to assume this is the one lol

              It was part of the annoucement .

              After reading many comments I think my ‘outrage’ came, as it often does, from misunderstanding. Also, because when singing up most people say don’t overthink it, it doesn’t matter much. But now I’m seeing that it does matter to sign up for an instance with like minded people. As I see more of what seems to be the drive behind beehaw, it doesn’t really resonate with what I want, but that doesn’t make it wrong. It is ok for that group of people. We just need to make sure that communities of general interest that were taking off there because they were one of the largest instances are also present in a more open and accessible place, so we are not restricted to collaborate.
