Stg beehaw's admins need to grow a pair
Eh, it's not all bad. They want a certain tenor to their instance, and don't have the tools to effectively deal with folks who want to screw with that. Lemmy is in a period of exponential growth, and open registration policies seem to be the exception rather than the norm.
If it's an actual problem (I haven't seen anything particularly problematic yet, but I'm your average good natured sh.it.head), they're within their rights to use the few tools at their disposal to calm things down, work with the instances of concern, and retool their approach.
This is all a learning experience for everyone involved. I have no ill-will or butthurt over this move, just disappointment that we can't have nice things right away.
