Hello everyone on asklemmy. I’m new to the lemmyverse and enjoy the communities and people here :) But now my question is: what’s the difference between creating an account on a server where you have to go through a whole series of steps? I don’t know if that’s the case, but I feel like there’s a difference between an account on a server where I have to go through a whole registration process and get approved manually and an account that I can “just” register and use. I don’t understand the difference since I can interact with all communities on all servers. Thank you in advance!
Servers with “lower” entry requirements have been infested with bots. Those with “higher” entry requirements are breaking ties (defederation) with these “lower requirement” lemmy servers
I have the impression that a place like beehaw is defederating so much, that in the end they’ll be on their own.
I don’t need an e-mail to use reddit, it would be a pitty to need one on the alternative.
I don’t think they are defederating “so much”, however even if they did Beehaw’s primary focus is being it’s own community, I don’t think being on its own would bother them so much or the people who were there before the Reddit exodus.
I thought it was only a single instance (beehaw) defederating
Your own instance has 49 instances defederated https://lemmy.world/instances
