And over-sensitive, over-protective jannies ruin it again - just like Mastodon.

Back to Reddit we go.

Does this really ruin anything or just it just get your nose out of joint? The fediverse doesn't have to be and ideally isn't a homogeneous experience. If you can't deal with minor differences like this across independent, autonomous sites, you're just not going to have fun. Lighten up.

It actually kinda does ruin something. Beehaw was setting itself up to have the defacto communities for a bunch of topics.

It’s only been a few days of massive community growth. Now that the beehaw communities aren’t available, I’m sure alternative large communities will grow within the federated instances. And it’ll only take a few more days to get them up to where the beehaw versions were.

This is actually really good for lemmy.world, as it’s the second largest instance so it will likely wind up with the largest versions of those communities.
