    Some thoughts

    • So nodes and instants are interchangeable terms
    • wth 140k? I thought we were around the 30k mark or something. Great!
    • Lemmy.ml is bigger than .world but world has a lot more active users? Interesting. I think .world will be known in the future as the redfuge instant.
    • Beehaw defederated? That kinda defeats the point of the fediverse, doesn’t it? I’d be a little mad if some moderator could make that call for me if I was registered to Beehaw

      Beehaw will certainly federate back when the problem at LW with trolls/fascists/racists/etc will be properly modded. The problem for beehaw is that LW is a victim of its success and beehaw is just protecting itself. Once properly moderated, beehaw will open its arms to LW.

      Being able to defederate from an instance is the very definition of the fediverse. You are not beholden to a single provider
