Beehaw defederation means this is now the largest book sublemmy accessible

Beehaw has decided to defederate from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works. I believe it was already separated from lemmygrad. I think this makes this community the largest one accessible to the most instances whereas before Literature@beehaw.org was. I guess we'll have to make the most of it!

Calling it "sublemmy" is incredibly cursed

Why did beehaw defederate?

They couldn't handle the massive influx of new users and need better moderation tools, they plan to federate again when they get control of the situation.

This plus they specifically didn't like the openness of these communities vs. their more stringent process (since they're trying to create a specific vibe.)

Why is beehaw going it's own way? I mean I kinda understand that lemmygrad might have a different world view, but why the rest?

They can't deal with the influx of new users from these two instances.

As they say, this is not permanent or about morality.

all the instances suffer from influx of new users and others don't federate because of trolls... Bad decision i think
