We waste intelligent minds on this rubbish when we are facing an existential crisis in climate change.
It's probably going to be the game of the year, maybe beaten by TOTK. Certainly it'll be one of the best selling games of all time.
This is such a neckbeard take.
I used Apollo, and after the way they treated the creator, there's no way I would use Reddit again.
I don't really care. I don't visit Reddit anymore and don't intend to return.
Yeah, the solution is just to leave beehaw though. It takes a few minutes to make a new account on another instance. If they really want to access the beehaw stuff they could join an instance that is still federated with them, that way they could see the beehaw posts and the lemmy.world posts.
It's probably best just to abandon beehaw entirely though and use alternative communities in the Fediverse.
They said they couldn't deal with the level of abuse and spam that came from lemmy.world users. They have a much more restrictive content policy and smaller, centralised moderation team than most other instances which exacerbated the problem.
One problem atm is that a user can't block by instance, just by community or individual users. It seems a lot of people are requesting this ability though so hopefully it gets added in the future.
Yeah, the level of entitlement is insane.
Should lemmy.world defederate from beehaw.org so we don't even see their posts/comments? It seems a bad user experience to have posts/comments appear that we can't properly interact with.
I can understand wanting to have a well-moderated community.
What I don't understand is how they expect to do that with a moderation team of just 4 people.
I guess now people will just leave Beehaw, its communities that were popular here will be replaced by others in the Fediverse and life will go on. The Fediverse is built to be resilient to such changes.
Yeah, users can't create communities there. It seems they wanted to run it in North Korea mode with all the power invested in a few admins. But that doesn't scale.
Usually you check this sort of thing before releasing it...
