First of all, let me say that while the admins can do what they want, I think it's pretty unfortunate that beehaw is defederating from .world and shitjustworks. I don't want to see the fediverse fracture, I want it to encourage conversation with others.

But, beehaw has done what they've done. And I must say it's annoying to be able to see their posts and comments and not engage with them. Plus, I could see their large, still visible communities taking away from ours without people realizing their own posts and comments aren't working.

So will .world be defederating from beehaw? I don't have a horse in the race, I'm jw

It should and any users should refrain from making alts on other instances and participating in beehaw's communities because you will be empowering them to repeat this again.

Instead you should join communities on other instances. There is an argument to join communities here on lemmy.world and on just.works that got de-federated as a counterbalance to any pressure from beehaw on other instances to de-federate them as well.
