Why YSK: Beehaw defederated from Lemmy.World and Sh.itjust.works effectively shadowbanning anyone from those instances. You will not be able to interact with their users or posts.

    True, but unsubbed from them when it happened because I don’t want to see communities I can’t interact with.

    Why add to the problem and have frustration with wanting to discuss something you are blocked from?

      They have every right to protect themselves against spam. But that said, ever since they defederated, their activity and user numbers are down.

        Agree that they have every right to handle their instance however they want. I also have the right to not interact with them while they are blocking the instance I call home.
