I'm sure people here can empathize with having all the tech wizards get burnt out and leave, and all the various teething problems but this is a bit much... lemmy has its issues but plenty of sites larger and smaller than beehaw are getting on just fine. Perhaps the lib sysadmins are just going back to brunch?

Do you know why?

They pre-emptively defederated from Hexbear (more than a year before we even had the ability to federate) making up the excuse that hatespeech(lmao yeah ok suuuure) was their reason for doing so. The reality is that they have been anti-communists from the start, they are an explicitly neoliberal project with the intent of grooming their users into neoliberalism, but this goal must remain secret so they couldn't just say "we defederated from hexbear because they're socialists", hence the lies.

As you can probably imagine, this creates a lot of animosity here.
