MODERATORS
 

I'm just curious if it is on the table at some point. I only see a small slice of beehaw when I'm logged in but the active participation feels like it is on a downward trend. Like, there appears to be ~700 on here right now. I know numbers aren't everything, but overall engagement is important. I'm on several instances with different accounts. I've been gravitating towards my .world account because it is so active. I get a grouchy or rude reply still from time to time, but it seems like most of the trolls have gone or been removed. That instance seems to be maturing fast and growing some personality all its own. The server seems constantly stressed, but Ruud is holding it together. The moderation seems much more in check now too. That's just my perspective. I'd like to see everyone come together again, but I am just one user.

To be clear, Beehaw has said that they'd refederate with lemmy.world once better mod tools exist. I don't believe they have any particular problem with the instance beyond the fact that it was too big and too open to control the inevitable trolls and bot accounts that come with it.
