There was a post about how beehaw was defederating from shitjustworks and lemmy.world about 6 hours ago. Are we involved in that, as are we a subset of lemmyworld?

https://beehaw.org/post/567170

How does this affect us? I still see beehaw posts on my 'all' page, but any content I engage with is effectively visible, I want to be sure

We are entirely unrelated to Lemmyworld. That's an entirely different site. As kbinauts we can see and interact with both beehaw and Lemmyworld since both are federating with us. What happened is essentially beehaw "blocked" Lemmyworld (literally http://lemmy.world/). Beehaw did not block kbin.social so we're fine. But Lemmyworld users won't be able to interact with beehaw users and vice versa.

I liked the terminology "kbinaut". I shall now use it to refer to my fellow kbin enjoyers.

The popular choices seem to be either kbeans or kbinauts. I prefer the latter personally.

Saw KBinners, thought it was okay. Then this bikini shot on this post, and thought "I want to be a Bikini on Kibini". #ItSoundedGoodAtThetime

We are fine at the moment. I hope we don’t end up acquiring bad actors who try to ruin it for us. Wish there was a passport system so that if you are in a blocked instance but weren’t the trouble maker that you can still get access
