Is it really so hard to get more moderators and ask for help with developing the tools?

The fact that other instances aren’t moderated to the same standard means that Beehaw is at fault?

Are you saying all instances should be so obsessed with protecting users from possible harassment as to cut off their communication with the outside world without even asking them first?

It doesn't matter now though. The damage they did matters less and less each day as other instances are getting more and more users. But even if they federate again, we should probably never post on their communities in case they do this again in the future.
