& I’m doing pretty good! The wefwef app has done a great job of recreating the Apollo experience and has made it a lot easier to not want to go and download the Reddit app. The more active it gets here, the easier it’ll be. How are you guys doing so far? Have you found an App for Lemmy that you prefer the most yet?

    While you are correct, the reasons for Beehaw defederating from lemmy seems to be something they have to do in order to moderate their own instance. As the technology grows (and hopefully modtools get built - like bots perhaps? and more mods in general), there will be no need to deferederate like Beehaw did. However, to give you an example as to why an instance would want to defederate (essentially, be private), is if it’s for an exclusive group of people. A workplace, or a subscription add-on. (think like, subscribing to a patreon, and as part of their offering, you get to sign up for their lemmy (or whatever server) instance). Maybe that isn’t how it would work, but in my brain, that’s a way it could be used and be beneficial :)
