    it’ll be twice as hard to grow a critical mass of content.

    According to lemmy explorer, if you sort both by number of users and by active users, lemmy.world and lemmy.ml are the 2 biggest servers by a good amount.

    Beehaw is 3rd, other servers are behind but many of them are still pretty new.

    Even if Beehaw decides to stay on their own, there’s more than enough “critical mass” to keep an healthy flow of content.

    With two of the largest instances split from each other

    They’re not, there’s no block between lemmy.world and lemmy.ml.

      A lot of recent lemmy.world users I’ve seen have claimed that they came from beehaw after being upset by the defederation and how they are running it.

        Not necessarily, there are a couple of communities that were really big, but alternatives are already growing elsewhere to possibly replace them.

        I think it will end with just little stuff being blocked, not important IMO.

          yes, but it basically brings the fediverse as a whole a few steps backwards, during a time when having accessible content is the most crucial to the success of the fediverse.
