Despite people obviously having hostility toward you for holding this sentiment I agree with you. Beehaw has some very extreme views, and while I admire them for their spirit of moderating against hate speech they do take things way too far.
One example is deciding to defederate Lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works simply to stick it to them, a move which ended up not really working in their favor since they just lost out in those communities, and many of their users (who didn’t feel the same extreme way they do) just left.
And they even talk about the Fediverse being non-viable when they went into voluntary exile by their own choice.
So honestly I would generally recommend people stay away from Beehaw, it’s just not worth giving them the attention, and one can already find many alternatives to the communities they have there on other instances. Which I can guarantee will be less extreme and childish over matters such as these.
The lesson being that beehaw is apparently a kindergarten.
Yes, positive vibes only.
Or you get the gat.

I intend on turning their “their server their rules” comments back on them next time they get banned on lemmy.ml.
Rigatoni you are my favorite shitposter on lemmy, but they do not like trolls on beehaw.
