Are we 'Shadowbanned' from beehaw? (kbin.social)

There was a post about how beehaw was defederating from shitjustworks and lemmy.world about 6 hours ago. Are we involved in that, as are we a subset of lemmyworld?

How does this affect us? I still see beehaw posts on my 'all' page, but any content I engage with is effectively visible, I want to be sure

Admins over there seem to be all the reddit mods we didn't want. Made my first account over there, dumping that one. Was cool for the first few days, now it's "I'm better than your community so your blocked" blog posting.

I don’t think that’s a fair assessment. Their platform they want to cultivate is a place where vulnerable populations feel free to open up and share how they feel without fear of reprisal. We should respect that. Here, we may want a little more pushback. Just gotta maintain decency

Blocking everything that isn't sunshine and rainbows dose not make me feel open, and makes me fear offending the admins.

Still a new platform, so we're all still searching for the right group. It's just frustrating figuring it's a bad fit later or it changes for the worst. I assume it's the same reason most of us are here.

Indeed, I don't think I would consider a place a "safe space" if I was constantly thinking "will I get banned for saying what I'm about to say?"

It depends on whether what you're about to say is "Hitler did nothing wrong." Nazis lost WWII, so the entire world is not safe for them. Nobody cares about creating safe space for Nazis.
