From the article:

"Beehaw is relatively new and relatively small at the moment, but it's one of the closest approximations of what Reddit is that you're going to find, and well worth investigating as a Reddit replacement. The interface even looks a lot like Reddit, albeit without a lot of the on-screen features and furniture that build up over almost two decades of operation.

Have a read of the Beehaw mission statement and you'll see the platform is committed to avoiding the "hate speech" and "disinformation" that's prevalent elsewhere. The communities available right now cover everything from neurodivergence and people of color to literature and gardening, so you're sure to find something of interest here."

I think Beehaw is a great instance who shows what the Fediverse can be and is about.

I love that they actually shout out 1 of the instances instead of Lemmy or Kbin as a whole.

but can you actually register to beehaw? Because I tried days ago, and I still can't log in.

[-] alyaza@beehaw.org 50 points 1 year ago

to put it mildly, the email situation behind the scenes is a fiasco right now that we're trying to resolve asap. if you registered a few days ago you're almost certainly in queue and if we had our way you might have a judgement by now, but our email providers kind of threw us a curveball yesterday that means we literally can't send out the emails that'd notify you if we approved or denied you. it's very dumb. we're very tired of it, lol

I read somewhere that there have been many cases of bots trying to register, is this true?
