It's the end of a crazy week, his instance is just a few weeks old, and there are many things to do. I'm sure he's busy and not intentionally ignoring beehaw.
I reached out to him on matrix and pointed him to this thread.

Self funding or donations
Yeah, people would make Obama and spez mods of their subs for the lulz; it's a disingenuous rumor to lie to spread about a person who has plenty of shitty things about him that people can discuss.
I saw the title and thought it was going to be exciting/positive haha
You're describing the reasoning behind the decision. The fact that this is a consequence of that decision remains the same.
I think it’s disingenuous to isolate the decision from the context as if it were made unprompted.
There's nothing in my comment to suggest that, and I think you're projecting here.
it comes across as if you are blaming the admins for something you don’t like - if that’s not your intent, then what is ?
I think many unintended consequences occurred from the defederation, and this situation is an excellent tangible example of that.
The part where things get tricky is that beehaw currently has ~15 of the top 50 communities across the entire fediverse and has become the defacto discussion grounds for gaming/tech/news/etc.
One could argue this goes against the whole concept of decentralized communication in the first place, and this may be a position beehaw doesn't want to be in.
Beehaw has every right to foster a tight-knit community that adheres to its desires.
But there also is a level of responsibility and custodianship over these large communities they foster for the betterment and adoption of the fediverse.
Alito seems untouchable, there are dozens of stories like this about him and his wife.
I disagree I think it hurts overall adoption and the classic XKCD comic comes to mind: https://xkcd.com/927/
I respect your opinion, though.
I don't think they care? As long as they can pump the communities with ads so they can IPO.
Lots of places that talk about this
!selfhosted@lemmy.world !selfhost@lemmy.ml !selfhosting@slrpnk.net !selfhosted@lemmy.ml
That's a good question that I'm unqualified to answer but I'm sure that !selfhosting@slrpnk.net is a good resource for this.
Beehaw is a lemmy instance, which is the equivalent of a reddit.
There are different communities on this instance which is the equivalent of a subreddit.
You are on a different lemmy instance, kbin.social. Which has its own communities and users there.
The cool thing about this setup is that you can mostly interact with any community on any occasion.
You're currently interacting with !support@beehaw.org from kbin.social
Hopefully that makes sense.
The overwhelming amount of content is distributed among lemmy.ml, lemmy.world and beehaw.org - whether these instances like it or not.
Is the expectation that every popular instance has its communities for general-purpose stuff?
Do we need a technology@beehaw.org, technology@lemmy.world, technology@lemmy.tf, etc? That fragmentation seems like a nightmare for the average user and for adoption in general.
IIRC Violentacerz modded like 50 different porn subreddits, and he did a goob job by moderation standards so he was appreciated by the admins for being the overseer of the porny side of reddit.
Discord is pretty great for video/voice chat - the things it tries to do outside of that can be frustrating.
It's miles ahead of having to use Ventrillo, Teamspeak, Skype like we had to in the past.
I thought Trump was really unpopular with Utah Mormons?
Super Auto Pets has replaced Hearthstone for me, it's fantastic.
https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-chrome-clean is what most use iirc
Be the change you want to see :)
Let's goooooooooooooooo
Myspace, Livejournal, Facebook, Digg, Twitter, Reddit
Most of the subs I'm active in haven't moved and probably won't be :(
It's the defacto way many communities stick around and communicate with each other, especially in the gaming world.
Good link, thanks.
People are trying to act like he got the award for only moderating jailbait are wrong.
Comments like this is why instances need downvotes displayed
I'm not sure why you're so defensive about it, but ok?
Seems like a consequence of beehaw's actions
