Things I love about beehaw

1. The admins really care about creating good community. And when they make decisions they back it up with documentation on how they came to that decision.
2. Things you post here get real engagement. It was rare for me to get people engaging with content on Reddit. But here just about everything I’ve posted has upvotes and comments!

I like the name as it conjures up a cute image of a bee in a little cowboy hat. The icons are nice too, I like the consistency. More generally, I like that there’s no tolerance for trolls here, people are generally friendly and it feels like it’s easy to comment without worrying about the replies you might get. Plus it’s transparent - I like the fact the admins post updates on bugs, finances, etc.

I’m on Lemmy.world as well and it feels slightly more like the old place in comparison.

Close-knit and friendly. I can also find more serious content in a lot of these communities. And of course I love the cowboy bee icon

It’s a cozy space with nice people and bees are awesome.

It feels friendly here. A little gentle corner. And I really appreciate the work y’all are doing to keep the instance up and running with all the recent influx

Emoji is not blasphemy like at the old place. They’re cute! 🐝 🌼

Everything.

It feels like people actually make an effort to preserve the nice atmosphere! We all made a conscious decision to come together at a place like this after all so we look out for each other!

Bee in a cowboy hat … nowhere else has one of those!
