in the future when they possibly have more moderators and the influx of users has slowed down on lemmy.world, would it be easy to federate again? i know many instances defederate from others that go against their beliefs or how they want to run the community, but ive not heard of any that have re-federated
I saw a post by one of the lemmy.world admins who said they had a discussion with the beehaw admins and their ideals align enough that they think they will federate again once moderation has gotten under control.
Not to be too much of a pedant, but I think the messaging is important: it’s not about how many moderators, it’s about moderation tools. Lemmy’s are a little too rudimentary for what they want.
Anyway, refederation would entail taking lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works off their blocklist. That would allow users on those instances to subscribe again and comment/post. That part would be user-initiated. Then on the Beehaw side, they’d have to subscribe again to lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works communities. That part would also be user-initiated.

Edit: it was actually the sh.itjust.works admin
Edit 2: here’s the link to the post: https://sh.itjust.works/post/129725
Anyone have a link for the curious?

This is hearsay, but I believe it is temporary until better moderation features are developed and user influx shows down.
