    Yeah, I left Beehaw. I understand what they’re trying to do, but I think they shouldn’t have tried to grow so much if they were intent on being such a walled garden. There was so much conversation on Reddit for people to come to Beehaw, and now the rug gets pulled out.

      Beehaw almost reminds of Tildes in that regard. They want to be their own safe, insular community. That’s totally fine, but the fact that at first Beehaw seemed to want to grow and be a big part of the community before abruptly changing their mind is the frustrating part.

      If they weren’t one of the largest instances OR if they were just that way from the beginning it would have been much more understandable and less frustrating.

      I was super into their philosophy at the beginning, but this abrupt change is disappointing.
