I'm not really keen on their reasons for defederating, but this makes no sense to me. What do I care if a beehaw user is posting good content on my community but I can't go to their instance? It's still more content and engagement for my community.

I'm just worried they are block happy. I'm assuming some are bad and have some issues, which make it reasonable for them to be blocked. But 350 blocked? That's a high number. I'm scared to click just in case they blocked illegal instances with troublesome material.

I don't know maybe I'm weird but I just find the arguments for blocking Lemmy.world and Shitjustworks not great. There's a slur filter right?? Shouldn't that block most trolls?

problem is you don't have to start slinging slurs to troll people. People can still be nuisances and say bigoted things.

True, I'm tired and didn't think of that

I see your point. I was seeing it from the perspective of discouraging stuff to be shared on other communities because it's already in beehaw, but you'd need an account to participate there.

But I see what you say, allowing them to contribute to other instances isn't bad even if they don't allow those instances to contribute on theirs.
