Isn't the whole point of the fediverse that you get to create and craft your experience for your community? There's a really good reason defederating is a feature. I don't get it, Beehaw decides to use the features of federation so now we: firstly become tribalistic (them vs us), and secondly decide to get angry? Like it or not, this is what you signed up for when you wanted federation.

Yes, exactly

like we're not owed Beehaw's cooperation; it's their instance and if the users want to do this then that's their perogative

Regardless, this is being blown out of proportion; Beehaw outright said that this was temporary
