From the article:

"Beehaw is relatively new and relatively small at the moment, but it’s one of the closest approximations of what Reddit is that you’re going to find, and well worth investigating as a Reddit replacement. The interface even looks a lot like Reddit, albeit without a lot of the on-screen features and furniture that build up over almost two decades of operation.

Have a read of the Beehaw mission statement and you’ll see the platform is committed to avoiding the “hate speech” and “disinformation” that’s prevalent elsewhere. The communities available right now cover everything from neurodivergence and people of color to literature and gardening, so you’re sure to find something of interest here."

    I’m confused on how this works… I’m on lemmy.world, and they list that as a blocked instance on that page… But I can still access beehaw communities no problem from here.

      The way federation works is by federated instances making copies of those communities, and syncing them when there are any changes, like when somebody posts a comment.

      Defederation disables sync, but the ghost copies still exist on l.w. You can still comment and everything, it just wouln’t be synced to the main community on beehaw – they won’t see your comments, and you won’t see comments posted there that are made after defederation happened.

      I was actually under the impression we would no longer receive updated content from beehaw, but that doesn’t seem to be the case… At any rate, if you go to https://lemmy.one/home/data_type/Post/listing_type/All/sort/TopDay/page/1, you’ll see a post on their Technology community about Jellyfin. If you do the same here https://lemmy.world/home/data_type/Post/listing_type/All/sort/TopDay/page/1, it’s nowhere to be found. It does look like you can still view the current content being posted on Beehaw when directly visiting those communities, but I’d be willing to bet if you try to comment, it will be like being shadow banned and only other lemmy.world users will see them. I did a quick check through on one of their most commented posts in the last 24 hours, and I don’t see a single reply from anyone on lemmy.world or sh.itjust.works.
