Has Beehaw stated why lemmy.ml and kbin.social were spared, but lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works were defederated when all four share similar growth and open registration? (beehaw.org)

(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.

I took one look at the block list that beehaw has, and it immediately became clear they just block pretty much everything.

That's the way a lot of the legacy lemmyverse is. They're an enforced echo chamber. Unless you want to be the exact same echo chamber, you're not allowed.

I didn't even know I was on their block list until I checked their block list. I was subscribe to a bunch of their communities and participating through lotide, but instead of blocking the subdomain they blocked a magazine website with no federation features.
