(Posting to lemmy.world seems to be disabled so I’m posting this here instead.)

This inconsistency has been bothering me, so I went poking around in their support community, and the best I could find was a statement saying they had reached out to the admins of both. Apparently they expected @ruud@lemmy.world to reply to something that didn’t seem like a question as indicated by his response in Beehaw Support. As such, they claim to have no roadmap to eventually refederate with lemmy.world.

I added a reply from another instance, but I’m guessing I won’t receive a reponse so if anyone knows, I would like to better understand the issue. It’s quite annoying feeling like I’m missing out, especially when I’m seeing inflammatory overly generalized statements from kbin.social users about how lemmy.world deserved to be defederated over in this post on lemmy.ml.

    TBH, as I haven’t spun up my own instance to see what admins can do, I can’t say for sure if what I see is the whole record.

    That said, the modlog is described in the docs as being there to provide transparency, so at face value, it seems that five people may have been all it took.

    I also haven’t looked closely into what “purged a user” means vs the other more transparent actions on the modlog, so I have to say, “take all these comments with a grain of salt.” I’m still learning about lemmy as a platform.

      I may be mistaken, but from what I gather the modlog is…Kind of a mess. It appears to aggregate the admin/mod actions of admins & mods across instances & communities, and doesn’t allow for filtering to the specific instance or community.

      You can see this if you come across someone that’s been banned in a different instance but made a new account in another with the same name by filtering the modlog by username (albeit that can be finicky, like a lot of things atm).
