    I got my first attempt on beehaw rejected because I said I was a reddit refugee. Apparently that means I cannot have that user name at all now.

        Yeah I assume that’s the case, I just haven’t gotten around to it yet. They seem busy these days. Still, everyone was like “just write you are a reddit refugee” and that definitely didn’t work.

          They explicitly told me in Matrix to not write that, so I just wrote two paragraphs summarizing the two posts they linked in the application guide.

          Probably comes down to beehaw specifically stating “we are not a reddit replacement and don’t intend to be”. Doesn’t mean redditors aren’t allowed obviously, but if your reason for wanting to join is stated as “i want reddit” with no more context then it makes sense.
