I am one of the admins of Beehaw and I'm trying to get some feedback on our potential move.

Let's start out with a little Beehaw history before judgements are passed, please.

A handful of us were beta testing Tildes when we decided to have discussions on a Discord server.

We decided that our 'Northern Star' or guiding principle would culminate as 'Be Nice' with purposefully vague/flexible interpretations. Our overall goal is to provide a safe space to disenfranchised persons.

We talked for a little over a year and some of our members became impatient. Then someone stepped in to suggest a couple of platforms that we could consider getting started with.

One of those platforms was Lemmy. None of us knew, at that time, anything about ActivityPub.

During the Reddit exodus (surrounding the API outcry and blackout), our instance exploded. We were, initially, crippled by the mass amounts of users seeking refuge.

Thankfully, someone stepped in and volunteered hundreds of hours of work to stabilize our instance and refine it further.

After many hours of talks, it became clear to us that our overall goal could be achieved outside of Lemmy/ActivityPub.

Right now, we feel that Lemmy and ActivityPub have downsides that are limiting us from achieving that goal.

Any time I see a comment that makes me think, "there's no way someone can be this stupid", it's guaranteed to have come from Hexbear.

Fuckin’ exactly. It’s like they have an iq test to join hexbear and if one of them scores higher than 75 or accidentally says something funny or clever they automatically get rejected.

Imagine being such an absolute connoisseur of phrenological concepts that you believe in IQ lmfao. Cracker shit

Run along now you moron racist. Nobody wants to be polluted by your idiocy.

Lmao, the hypocrisy. Comfortable as a motherfucker using racist, ableist concepts to slander one's opponents; that is, until it gets turned around on your peckerwood ass, then it's time to pearl-clutch, concern-troll, and crybully. Shut your techbro settler ass up.

It would be cool if literally a single word of that was actually applicable to me, but just going off and copying an pasting some random ass set of big words to make it look like you’re not a fucking moron isn’t fooling anybody.

Well, it might fool some of your brother idiots over on hexbear or your server, but everybody knows what that’s worth.

Hmmmmm, all that bullshit is worthless talk in the face of you upping a racist, ableist concept developed by a eugenicist cracker to justify sterilizing people; which means you're still the most hypocritical cracker in the room for still pearl clutching like this. Don't want to be called a cracker, don't do cracker things. Cracker.

EDIT: And now that I'm thinking about it, imagine actually thinking it's possible to be racist to settler-descent crackers lmfao

Blah blah blah. I don’t give two shits if you’re a racist piece of shit or not. Dumbasses like you are a dime a dozen.

I just don’t know how you can expect anyone to take you seriously when 90% of your posts are just you going around using racial slurs. You’re angry at the world and the only way your feeble mind can think to deal with it is to be racist and post your silly little cracker boxes as though that somehow makes you clever. It’s exactly as clever as those ignorant hillbilly redneck inbreds with their Lets Go Brandon flags. Any valid points you may accidentally stumble upon gets lost in the wash when you keep going to that well time after time after time. And the sad part is you’re not even getting people mad like you’re oh so obviously trying to do. You’ve mentioned pearl clutching twice now as though that’s just something you can will into existence, but that’s pretty far from the reality. You’re just being dismissed as the ignorant racist piece of shit that you are.

So again, piss off or get smarter. If you can.
