Still not that simple. A beehaw users could post something first and you and I wouldn't see it but others would.
What is beehaw, and why wouldn't we see it?
Exactly.
Soooooo, their logic is "we want to build a community" but also "we disagree with open registrations, and want to seperate from the two biggest instances on Lemmy".
That's like throwing a party, and then getting nervous when people show up.
That was a year ago, the fediverse was (and is) growing by leaps and bounds; basically all instances were dealing with DDoSes and huge waves of obviously scripted account-creation. AFAIK beehaw federates with both of those instances again.
I'm pretty ambivalent about federation. If an instance wants to be a private forum and not federate that's up to them and a valid use case I guess. I personally prefer instances that federate with basically everyone and let me block per user/instance myself but to each their own.
They did it so early I'm not sure how much of that was an issue. And no, while they did say it could be reversed later on, it never has been. Last I heard they were considering leaving Lemmy entirely.
Just checked and you're right.
But still, that's the beauty of federation to me, they're still using the same interoperable standard so if I want to see them I can spin up my own instance or find one of the ones they still federate.
Agreed, that's their prerogative. It did seem to stunt their growth but without wanting to take on more admins they may be fine with that.
What?! No, that's censorship! Let us do the blocking.
/s
Added emphasis to previous statement.
It still wouldn't help. If two instances block each other, but neither of them blocks a third instance, and someone from one of the first two joins a community in the third, then that person won't see posts in that community from members of the blocked instance.
It would make a difference is all I'm saying.
Perfect and better are not mutually exclusive concepts.
