A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Oh I am not saying it is not doing fine. I just found it super-interesting that a much younger project got ahead, even if perhaps only temporarily, as far as active users are concerned.
Honestly, many people are turned off by Lemmy tankies. I myself though I'd never come back to Lemmy until I found beehaw.
I keep hearing people commenting about that, but so far I haven't noticed any particular tankie-ish influence.
Maybe I'm just not choosing the communities where they hang out?
The problem is lemmy.ml From what I get, a lot of the old guard (before the Reddit exodus) are tankies. That includes the admins and mods. And Lemmy.ml was or still is the biggest instance because new people automatically choose the server of the Lemmy devs (Because many people don't understand the concept of federation).
Lemmy.ca blocks lemmygrad just like Beehaw so you can't see anything from the biggest tankie community on Lemmy.
You can see this here https://lemmy.ca/instances
So for those of us that do t have any association or federation with the "tankie lemmy", there shouldn't be any taint, right?
Yeah, there shouldn't be posts/comments to the communities that block Lemmygrad and in those that can like lemmy.ml's communities - I believe that you can't see them.
