Why the heckonomics is Beehaw still defederated from Lemmy.world?

Like, what the heck?

I assume its still defederated for the same reason they defederated in the first place. Beehaw has the goal of running a strongly moderated instance, and Lemmy.world had too many users for their moderation to keep up with them. They plan to re-federate when they have the mods and mod tools in place to handle that much volume.
- thanks so much!
Ren, we talked about this, I'm allergic to bees. Geez, try and be a little more considerate next time
- lolol
  just so weird. I know it's a very reactive and restrictive instance, but sucks how quickly they've defederated from... well, so much! Their blocked list is HUGE.
  
  I'll be honest with you, I don't really know what this is regarding. I'm new to the fediverse and just saw an opportunity for a joke. It seems the easy fix though would be to create an account through an instance that isn't as reactively restrictive
No idea. Ask them.
- not sure I would survive the application process to be vetted, onboarded, then maybe actually allowed to talk to them.
  
  The trick is to sign up at a well behaved medium-small instance. From over on lemmy.fmhy.ml I can interact with both Beehaw and lemmy.world.
