MODERATORS
Agreed, it sucks. But their admins are talking to our admins, and so far ours seem like they have their heads screwed on pretty well, so I'm sure it'll only be for a short time.
Oust the shitheads, promote the stand-up sh.it.heads, I say.
To be honest I had no idea that people from this instance were doing it until one troll post bragging about getting us banned from Beehaw and explained how he did it, along with a comic book supervillian diatribe about how the Fediverse isn't safe and long live Reddit.
The hell, lol… do you have a link to that post?
I saw the same post the comment above is referring to and their description is accurate. And I also saw the offending post they put on beehaw. Some low effort troll homophobic thing. Their posts on both beehaw and sh.itjust.works were both quickly down voted and removed I think, because I couldn't find either again shortly after I first saw it.
Damn... Yeah, to be honest, it makes me understand things from beehaw's perspective quite a bit, then.
The internet was a mistake
Who gets so weirdly defensive and territorial over a website? Not even their own one at that? I loved spending time on Reddit but I can't imagine finding other website and deliberately trying to make them a shittier place because I like Reddit.
I mean, the url literally contains shit.
If we can't say naughty words on lemmy I'll have to find something else. Can't there be a website with a middle ground between 4th reich HQ and baby preschool?
Sometimes it feels like the internet is in an unstable equilibrium. A space starts off as a blank slate, not pulled in any particular direction. Then as soon as it gets a critical mass of either miserable jerks or stuck-up prudes, it spirals in that direction until it's inhospitable to the average person.
