Why YSK: Beehaw defederated from Lemmy.World and Sh.itjust.works effectively shadowbanning anyone from those instances. You will not be able to interact with their users or posts.
Edit: A lot of people are asking why Beehaw did this. I want to keep this post informational and not color it with my personal opinion. I am adding a link to the Beehaw announcement if you are interested in reading it, you can form your own views. https://beehaw.org/post/567170
Makes sense. The problem with their approach was it basically punished people on Beehaw rather than people on the instances they deem problematic. I see what they’re trying to do and have absolutely no problem with it, but I and most people I’d got to know there just moved to another instance so we could interact outside the walled garden. Whereas my account on .world was unaffected because there’s alternatives to all the Beehaw stuff elsewhere.
Well when they defederated, that’s why I decided to make an account on Lemmy.world too.
