Today I learnt that at beehaw.org you don’t really have to break any instance/community rules to have your comments removed by the admin. In their wiki page they wrote over the top, corporate-sounding articles about how “Beehaw aspires to be a diverse place” where “everyone plays an important role in that mission”, how they are against Reddit-style power mods and in favour of fair moderation, but the reality seems to be quite the opposite.

I’m really glad Lemmy is not Reddit and there’s always plenty of alternatives, which makes me appreciate Lemmy even more. No more yellow icons on my communities subscription list. 🏸🐝

    Those reasons sound perfectly reasonable.

    Also how do you know that admin is a he? We have gender neutral pronouns you know? Use They/Them. It’s not a new concept.

    the beehaw admins have never pretended to be anything other than opinionated. the underlined articles sound stupid and I’m sure nobody is missing your dumb shit.

    you are tedious and boring here also.

    These were pretty reasonable takedowns. If you wanna sling garbage without repercussion, there’s always hexbear
