Huffman has said, “We are not in the business of giving that [Reddit’s content] away for free.” That stance makes sense. But it also ignores the reality that all of Reddit’s content has been given to it for free by its millions of users. Further, it leaves aside the fact that the content has been orchestrated by its thousands of volunteer moderators.

Defederating is literally a part and feature of the fediverse.
and so is unsubscribing from everything that is Beehaw and ignoring their existence
hey man, just so you’re aware ( because maybe you don’t see it) your tone comes off retaliatory when all beehaw did is try to protect their community using the tools available. is that wrong? why would you follow that with unsubscribing from good communities there? I’m not getting it.
I mean, if you defederate from everyone else, your instance isn’t a participant in the “fediverse”. Your communities become kind of irrelevant. I did the same thing. It’s not retaliatory, it’s logging off of MySpace because none of my people are there anymore.
