    Considering Lemmy’s apparent deep-rooted technical issues, I’d be perfectly fine with Beehaw searching for something else. Leaving Lemmy doesn’t mean leaving the Fediverse, which a lot of people seem to be misunderstanding. It’s sort of a hard requirement for anything Fediverse-related to be about as advanced in terms of mod tools as Mastodon at least, and otherwise, what’s the point? People are focusing way too hard on perceived ideas about “what the community is like” or whatever, look guys, it’s the internet, it’s always like that. Maybe stay away from places as general and wide-ranging as Technology (honestly I’d say that’s the flaw of a good chunk of Lemmy instances and people need to start looking for / creating more specific stuff. It’s out there, please god just look.)

    Ultimately the purpose of Lemmy is to be something like a traditional forum system, but networked in a way that makes those forums highly discoverable. Lemmy achieves that, but if there’s actually technical barriers to content moderation, yeah, that sucks.
