Honestly I would have joined beehaw except I disagree with the no downvote policy. It forces you into a terrible tradeoff where either you upvote literally everything that isn’t bad, but then have no way of actually indicating truly good content, or else only upvote the truly good content, but then have no way of indicating bad content. You could always block users that post bad content, but that’s a super heavy handed approach with no real nuance, and doesn’t help improve the community.
I’m hoping this is the push needed for a Reddit alternative to gain enough traction without being a cesspit like Voat was.
I’m liking what I see so far today on the fediverse so far but yeah - moderation is key
yep, and with what I see on Beehaw, I’m happy with how the moderation looks
