      Don’t know about beehaw but lemmy.world was really getting on my nerves with how slow it was and how often it was down. Lemm.ee has been a much better experience for me.

        There had been some downtimes, apparently due to DDoS attacks, but since then everything is fine. Actually I am not a fan of such elitarian approaches, with a hand-picked user base and too strict moderation. I am actually quite happy on Lemmyworld and was curious what would make Beehaw so special. But I’ll keep Lemm.ee in my mind as a possible alternative.

          Beehaw is just defedrated from most instances and heavily moderated. So it’s a lot of LGBT+ and people who were on other instances and got fed up with tankies.

            I haven’t been on beehaw because it sounds like the kind of place that would have bi lesbian discourse or sysmedicalism or something along those lines

      Hey, no cheating!.. /jk

      It has a different moderation style and culture. Best explained in the “rules” of the instance, which is a single “be nice” and some commentary. Admins are strict, but fair, and give you a chance to change your behavior if you accidentally break the rule.

        Their philosophy and rules were a bit of TL;DR for me.

        EDIT: I guess I would be in constant fear of breaking the rules there…

          Hehe, the philosophy docs are a honeypot. There is still only a single rule, they just explain why, and what that means. But if you expect a lot of rules, I can see how their size can discourage someone.

          They’ve a added some simplified examples, but maybe the honeypot idea has its own merits… 🤔

            It worked on me… 😉 Anyway, I am quite happy here in Lemmyworld and this one also does not defederate that much. It’s possible that Beehaw is the little happy island for the people there, and I wish them to remain happy, but I prefer an instance with less rules and less defederation.

      Beehaw is hard-nosed about banning tankie dipshits. So there’s that. Then again, so is the instance I’m on
