PSA: beehaw defederated from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works
hey folks, we’ll be quick and to the point with this one: ##### we have made the decision to defederate from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works. we recognize this is hugely inconvenient for a wide variety of reasons, but we think this is a decision we need to take immediately. the remainder of the post...
We still federate, but god knows how long that will last. They have defederated nearly 400 instances and they sound lile theyre losing the plot

Oof. I had added a couple of the communities from there on my feed here, since they had the largest gaming community for instance. I don’t want to have to make a different account for every major server, but the fact that one group can just decide to cut everyone else out like that makes it seem like that might be necessary. X.x
Regardless, I feel like isolating like this is just gonna make this whole Fediverse thing feel even more user-unfriendly for people who are on the fence about sticking around.
Well that instance will lose out to others, give it time and those communities will be created elsewhere and people looking for a larger pool of content will sign up on a federated instance.
For the other side of the argument, safe spaces, well moderated can be important so private communities need to be added to Lemmy with some haste.
