I actually did seriously consider doing that but I decided against it. Beehaw has almost everything that a social platform needs and I’d rather help it grow than try to create something new.
Measures to keep it from becoming another reddit far down the road. I’d love if this could be my forever home here. 15 years ago when reddit was started it had a similar vibe to here and I’m sure few people thought it would turn into the cesspool it is today. If we could put preempive measures in place to avoid that early on this could be something beautiful.
I think the desire of the admins of Beehaw to not make this a part or full time job will go a long way. But the federated nature of Lemmy can be problematic in a way that I’m not sure has any good answers.
