How do I sub to that? It says view on lemmy.world but won’t let me switch over.
Beehaw defederated from lemmy.world (and sh.itjust.works) long ago.
Ohhh totally forgot about that. Apparently they wanted to do their own thing or something. Doesn't make sense to me. I'm on lemm.ee so I can sub though
They couldn't handle the influx of users from new instances with open registration as they only had 4 admins.
What do you mean? I just subscribed using the above link from the Eternity Android app.
The defederation is one-way; lemmy.world isn't defederating beehaw.org. lemmy.world users can still see the community, and even still post to it (I assume, not sure if lemmy.world took changes to stop that but, as you can see it even has posts from local lemmy.world users as of 2 months ago, but the last content from anyone outside the instance is 7 months old). However, they will never make it to beehaw.org and thus won't be federated anywhere else (only users on lemmy.world would ever see it).
TIL, thanks!
I mean this. . I just checked and do see a post from 4 days ago so maybe they recently reversed it?
Edit: nope
So you can "subscribe" and maybe even comment but no one on beehaw will see it. I see now that one new post I saw was from someone on my instance.
