Since my last post yesterday, lemmy.world has added over 3000 new users, bringing the total user count to 22000 today (source: https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list). It firmly holds the position of the second-largest lemmy instance, surpassing beehaw.org by a significant margin of 10000 users.

In other news, beehaw has defederated from lemmy.world a few hours ago. How does the third largest instance only have 4 mods for its 12000 users?!

So much going on!

      Now that BeeHaw has defederated, they won’t see any comments from lemmy.world/shitjustworks users in their own communities.

      If they kept federation, those users would be able to comment on beehaw.org communities.

      Sorry for the confusion, I meant that, if they didn’t defederate and their users just kept on their ‘local’ feed, they’d still see outside comments.
