I think this sort of unfulfilled promise has been the biggest obstacle of my full scale adoption of a reddit alternatives.
As a non-typical Lemmy user (No interest in privacy, piracy, Linux, FOSS, Web Dev, SW Dev, Veganism, or discussing political theory with strangers online) finding active communities in topics i am interested in (basketball, football, hip hop and rap, martial arts, boxing, mma, PC building, relationships, kink, and the specific humor and nuance that comes with being a Black person on the internet) has been a struggle.
Many of those communities have two people or less posting in them or don’t exist at all.
People are talking here but not about things i wanna discuss and that’s disappointing so i have a hard time “sticking” if that makes sense
The mod history you posted definitely makes it look like they have a clear idea what kind of bikini/community they want and you don’t fit and neither of you were gonna change.
I’ve got negative interest in Beehaw. I’m not defending them or calling you a malcontent. They might be actual fascists for all i know. I’ve had 0 interactions with them.
Just saying that it’s clear who they want and it’s not you
