(Posting to lemmy.world seems to be disabled so I’m posting this here instead.)

This inconsistency has been bothering me, so I went poking around in their support community, and the best I could find was a statement saying they had reached out to the admins of both. Apparently they expected @[email protected] to reply to something that didn’t seem like a question as indicated by his response in Beehaw Support. As such, they claim to have no roadmap to eventually refederate with lemmy.world.

I added a reply from another instance, but I’m guessing I won’t receive a reponse so if anyone knows, I would like to better understand the issue. It’s quite annoying feeling like I’m missing out, especially when I’m seeing inflammatory overly generalized statements from kbin.social users about how lemmy.world deserved to be defederated over in this post on lemmy.ml.

    So why isn’t kbin.social defederated now? They are federated, open, and growing. The only sin that lemmy.world had was it was reliable.

      Tbh I’d say give it some time; if they see a similar spike in undesired posters/comments from there, they’ll probably defederate from them. I can only speculate that so far they just haven’t yet.

      They may also be reevaluating their approach, but not being on their team, I don’t have any special insights, only some informed guesses/speculation.
