🌈 hello world! 🌈

happy to chat and make the fediverse a colourful place

follow me for lukewarm takes and other nonsense

Grow ðŸŒąðŸŠī up ☝ïļðŸ‘†

Edit: jk I misinterpreted I thought you were raging about them lmfao

I need to grow up

@Kwaker76 tldr defederation is disconnecting from the rest of the fediverse (or whatever specific instances you don't want to talk to). I think there are tiers to it but that's the gist.

Some people are salty but beehaw defederated from sh.itjustworks and Lemmy.world as a temporary stopgap until better modtools are available to prevent getting harassed.

HEADPHONE JACK.

GIVE ME THE GOD DAMN HEADPHONE JACK BACK

The cycle of tech life and death continues... How innocent we were then.

These places were just born to begin with. Can't be dying if you haven't yet been growing!

Chuds. I know they're inevitable on any platform but my goodness we could do without their vile hatred. Any of the incel subs must stay gone. Also, cryptocurrency.

It feels like the comfort of a close community, like small subreddits. Fortunately for me that's exactly where I thrive.

Vague 2008 Reddit vibes (including the chaotic techie vibe and the weird nsfw but that's part of the charm).

Just assume everything going wrong is a bug at this point 😅 it's quite early in development

@veridicus

The site will continue, but the content will never be the same.

Outer Wilds!

It's a stopgap measure until better moderating tools are developed. I can't blame them for it.

New best friend time!

Sorry to hear you're feeling that way, OP, but just know you'll find better people out there.

Bee the change you wish to see in the world ;) You are the content!

It is new, and it is fresh. I think I like it.

Hey, testing, can anyone from Beehaw see this? I'm from kbin. I like Beehaw's categories so far but I wanted a federated instance to see how it feels as I adjust to the fediverse. Kbin is not defederated from beehaw, right?

Despite some of the... angry comments I think beehaw made the right decision for now. Moderation tools are important, particularly in places like this.

I get no boosts, mostly upvotes, but it only shows my one downvote ;p Help, I'm being attacked!

It does seem like a minimal issue compared to the rest. Hopefully it'll be tweaked soon enough!

I never had posting anxiety because I stuck mostly to small subs but I despised how automod could just do that. That said, it would be cool if we had a (smaller) automod here, before things get out of hand. We don't need bots and trolls to ruin everything.

I will never switch to wireless headphones until the quality is as good as wired.

Iirc there is also a user script to put it at the top of the page

This feels like old reddit :) I love it here

respond with "k" and revel in the fact that you made their heads truly explode

This is oddly exciting, like being a child again. I hope it grows into something great. Hello from kbin!

It really does feel like the 90s. A bit magical, honestly. I hope this catches on just a little bit more!

It's always greener...

@RodPhoto You can enable notifs in settings

And the race is on...

I have multiple under the same username too but I still fear for when it might be taken, for example x_x aaah

I hope people develop a transfer option soon (with limitations of course).

I wasn't aware of that sub but yeah, anti-radicalization magazines/communities would be cool.

hello from kbin!

Frankly, maybe it's okay that it's not. Let it have time to simmer first before opening the floodgates!

What a weird looking giraffe.

Young people like it? Popular? Oversaturation of posts about things? It must be bad!

Anything popular attracts the contrarians' ire, especially if minorities or children like it.

sparkly

no they're joking about the binary

This is awesome

@Delain Fair enough ^^; It seemed to make enough sense to me, looking at how different the states run things despite being a union.

But yeah, that is probably more apt.

@brunox unfortunately it doesn't have similar tools as of yet but I imagine they'll be worked on eventually!

@porkins Honestly, I'm not too certain of that yet myself. All I know is that currently it's a two-way street which is why Beehaw defederated in the interim before mod tools are developed.

I'm trying to keep it simple ;p
