Without looking to chum the thread with drama, is there a particular reason you’re able to share for leaving this instance, i.e. anything users should know of?
More specifically, it was worried about moderation, and the signup policy was their preferred way to handle that. If moderation tools get better, then the signup policy could be relaxed on their end.
Even so, I just unsubbed from communities over there and found others to scratch the same itch. So whatever floats their boat I guess.
I don’t really understand OP’s choice, but it’s theirs to make, not mine. I personally just sub to communities I’m interested in and ignore the rest, and that seems to work pretty well.
This is unrelated and we are going to face a similar decision to beehaw’s soon as well (or we already are, considering I saw at least one post about it)
As someone who can only get online sporadically, thank you for this update on the state of affairs … I hedges my bets a bit with logins here and Beehaw, but so far this site does appear to be vulnerable to negative posters to me too!
You could just subscribe to the Patient Gamers community on whatever instance you move to, you wouldn’t need to keep your sh.itjust.works account or anything.
I’ve just caught up on your other comments, and thanks for that proof in one of them. I knew your instance had some issues, but I hadn’t realized it had gotten that bad. Best of luck with whatever instance you decide to move to.
I don’t mod any big communities here yet but I’d be more than happy to help out this one. I’ve been subbed to the subreddit equivalent for years so I know the content well enough, and you can stay as mod in the background and I’ll happily resign from the position if you don’t like how I’ve handled it.
Awesome! I’m patient too, don’t worry :) I’d be happy to have a back and forth with you too, if you wanted me to know anything in particular about modding your community. The last thing I’d want is to run it to the ground. Feel free to message me any time, or I can shoot you my discord if you’re interested
i’d be happy to help you out with that if you would like someone from a different timezone than you. am australian so is awake when most of the rest of the planet sleeps
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: [email protected]
A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it’s price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don’t meet the system requirements, or just haven’t had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Yikes. Suddenly I’m more understanding of beehaw defederating from sh.itjust.works.
Beehaw has plans to refederate with us, the problem was the open sign up policy, not who sh.itjust.works federated with.

Maybe I’ll see you there :-)
If you’re going to a different instance, you can still mod this community with your account from there.
What instance did you settle on?

Tbh https://slrpnk.net/instances isn’t really trying that hard to defederate from questionable instances https://beehaw.org/instances is doing a far better job. Though they really like admins running their communities.

I’m not attacking you or anything I was just pointing out that it didn’t seem you were fixing your problem.
https://discuss.online is looking for mods or just members if you’re done being a mod.
Why not just mod it from another instance if changing instances is the issue?

Not if they’re not federated here
