First of all, let me say that while the admins can do what they want, I think it’s pretty unfortunate that beehaw is defederating from .world and shitjustworks. I don’t want to see the fediverse fracture, I want it to encourage conversation with others.

But, beehaw has done what they’ve done. And I must say it’s annoying to be able to see their posts and comments and not engage with them. Plus, I could see their large, still visible communities taking away from ours without people realizing their own posts and comments aren’t working.

So will .world be defederating from beehaw? I don’t have a horse in the race, I’m jw

    Maybe a solution would be a user preference, “hide content from defederated instances”. I know I would be very annoyed to keep seeing threads that I couldn’t post in, the whole point of a site like this for me is user interaction.

      Users can block instances without defederating. In kbin you can go to kbin.social/d/fediinstance.domain and block it.

      Idk how it works or the syntax for lemmy though
