I agree. I also think that beehaw’s defederation with Lemmy.world and Sh.itjust is a positive thing! If communities want to self censor, let them. If you want to interact with content from both, join both, or join an instance that maintains federation with both.
It feels like part of the beauty of the Fediverse is you can have a blog focused instance, an instance that prioritizes safe spaces and tolerance, another one that prioritizes fact checking, a humor instance, a debates instance, a casuals instance, a highly technical instance, a maximum free speech possible instance, and so on. I’m still learning but very excited to see what the future holds for this type of infrastructure.
I think it’s great. I want an account there for the occassions when I want to visit a safe space or a SFW website. It doesnt have to be your identity. You can go to different instances in different contexts, for different modes of interaction. And a third unrelated instance can remain federated with them both, if that’s amenable to all parties.
