Yeah, I’m sure it doesn’t feel great, but I didn’t get the sense that they were trying to personally attack everyone on the relevant servers, but more of a “we’re only four people, did not expect our instance to become a “default” community, and are completely underwater from a moderation perspective. We need to pull a rip cord to get this under control”
No Beehaw did not like how Sh.itjust.works and lemmy.world are run, did a complant session about how their mod tools are not talored to give them an excise of power on users not based in their instance, and then cut them off saying “they are willing to negotiate reopening.” Personaly I see this like union bargoning, we are stronger all sticking together and not bending to beehaws wims

Wait did sh.itjust.works do anything? I thought the story was that beehaw.org cut them and lemmy.world off, but only for people browsing on beehaw.

Yeah that’s what I thought. The comment I replied to seemed to suggest that sh.itjust.works had cut themselves off from others, but no.
I guess the “we’re only 4 people” was actually referring to beehaw’s mod team, or something.
Yes, the 4 person mod team at Beehaw was getting slammed by rule breaking content from those particular servers and couldn’t keep up.
The only tool at their disposal was to pull the plug on them entirely until there are better mod tools available
