I’m here because Lemmy.World keeps going down and Beehaw activity plummeted after defederating from the larger instances.

  • With games these days I just feel it’s a better deal. There’s stability patches, generally more content that’s added post-launch, and a sale price making it cheaper. I don’t understand buying games at launch when it’s not a primarily multiplayer game. Multiplayer makes sense since there’s the server population you have to consider. But Souls? Armored Core? Most RPGs? The multiplayer/coop is generally an afterthought, so I can wait until the deal ripens haha



  • It’s someone somewhere deciding what I can or can’t see on a remote host they have no control over.

    I mean, they do have control over it in a sense. They can defederate from it so it’s no longer on their instance, which they did. You can still access the community from other instances though, like you’re doing now, so it’s not really a big deal. This is how federation is meant to function. People running their instances by their own rules.

    I agree though, their rationale for defederation from this community does not add up for me either. But at the end of the day they can be as irrational as they want with their instance.
