If you’re worried about how our rules are explicitly open to interpretation, that’s on purpose and I hope the text above helps to clarify the vision that I have (and others of the community share) around how I’d like to see this community evolve and what we’d like to think we’re doing differently on this website. I’m not banning people for no reason or simply because they don’t agree with me. I want people to disagree with me. I want diverse opinions in here. But I also need this place to be nice and members of the community need to be willing to hold each other accountable in creating that kind of space. Of note, I’ve never banned a single person without openly discussing what happened with other individuals who participate in this community and asking for their input. I can’t promise this will always be the case, but I can promise that I’ll be open to having a discussion with any community member who feels that something unjust happened with another user or to themselves.
Beehaw is the only instance that has the most other instances blocked. Users from beehaw can’t even see this comment, nor yours if you reply to this one.
The rules being "We reserve the right to ban you whenever we want.” are not rules.
Oh my god, you just reminded me. What if the power-tripping r/askwomen mods migrate here? They are assholes, even to random women asking innocent questions.
I didn’t even mind writing an application and waiting a bit to be accepted. Of all the instances I looked at, Beehaw was the one that appealed to me the most.
Nuhuh, beehaws active user count and seemingly inclusive nature drew me in
Heck yeah! It’s a great place to have a thoughtful discussion.
It really isn’t. Just look at their “rules”

Yeah I think kindness and positivity are a bit too rare online, seems to be prioritised here!
