      MODERATORS
      
  
    
As I was posting in the other thread, they are blocking almost 300 communities and the reason for these last two is that having four mods they can't keep up with the huge influx of users. What is worse, they call it temporary until there are better moderation tools, but reading further what they hope for is the ability to block external users while allowing theirs to browse other communities

There's no way they can reasonably continue to host the largest threadiverse instances with this plan.
The solution is easy, the other lemmy instances can simple defederate beehaw in return and create new communities.
For real, fuck 'em they clearly want some setup where they are the center of the fediverse that benefits only their users and be an exclusive club. They want their cake and eat it too, but also force everyone else to watch. Then did this at a pretty crucial point in Lemmy's growth
