“We’re a collective of individuals upset with the way social media has been traditionally governed. A severe lack of moderation has led to major platforms like Facebook to turn into political machinery focused on disinformation campaigns as a way to make profit off of users. Websites with ineffective moderation allow hate speech to proliferate and contribute to the erosion of minority rights and safe spaces. Our goal with Beehaw is to demonstrate and promote a healthier environment.”
There is always room for friendlier, well-moderated social networks. I stopped posting after a few months at the Lemmy site that I had originally joined, mainly because there was too much trolling and baiting starting to happen. So it looks like Beehaw is worth giving a try if you’re looking for a federated alternative to Reddit.
