Beehaw on Lemmy: The long-term conundrum of staying here

Yesterday, you probably saw this informal post by one of our head admins (Chris Remington). This post lamented some of the difficulties we’re running into with the site at this point, and what the future might hold for us. This is a more formal post about those difficulties and the way we currently see things....

I’d rather not see Beehaw split from Lemmy but if you feel you have to then I for one wouldn’t mind seeing it using a phpbb board.

Glory to the old forums! /old grumpy mode

That sounded scary at first!

You guys are doing great, all of you!

And yeah, that was a risky move, a good one in hindsight, but still has to be scary?

Nice job and all.. but I really wish this wasn't a thing.

Karma is something that should stay behind at Reddit imho, it just fosters karma whoring instead of actually contributing to a discussion.

That's one of the things I liked best when I joined Lemmy, that there wasn't a visible karma counter on people's profiles.

Anyway.. rant mode off.

Still, neat job!

Rather annoying too.. sometimes I miss games that didn't require you or some server to be online..

I like the idea and to be honest it's probably better with registrations turned off so that all posts would only be from rss sources.

I'm definitely going to subscribe to a few of your communities!

I hear you!

There's a good exception to that rule though, the satanic temple (https://thesatanictemple.com/)! They're doing wonders using religion to push actual good values, they're mission is rather nice:

"The Mission Of The Satanic Temple Is To Encourage Benevolence And Empathy, Reject Tyrannical Authority, Advocate Practical Common Sense, Oppose Injustice, And Undertake Noble Pursuits."

Homosexuality isn't immoral there.. just conisder the huge banner right in the middle of their site. :)

They're a nice counter weight to the "regular" religions really.

    Why the fuck is humanity so completely deranged? :(

    Thanks for the update!

    While exploring kbin I've been checking out lemmy world a bit and there's a surprising level of toxicity towards beehaw going on. From a vocal minority of course but some have seem to have taken the degeneration as personal slight and some are just aggressive towards beehaw on a general term.

    A lot of people seem to understand the reasons and even if they don't agree with it they're at least understanding.

    The toxic minority is hard to grasp though.

    Then again, I suppose the ones that caused the issues in the first place are among that group.

    Perfectly handled IMHO, very open and honest. Transparency is important!

    I can definitely see how that could happen.
