It gives me hope for the future of beehaw refederating with that instance. They host some interesting communities. To be clear, I fully support beehaw defederating, it's just heartwarming to see instance admins do things that move things forward

The big thing was open registration. .world and sh.itjust.works are currently both fighting with bot accounts and spam communities since they have no built in oversight to user registration or community creation. And that was the listed reason beehaw unfederated. Because it was to easy to make a new account on .world and then spam hate on beehaw until the account was banned.
