You can check for any instance who they have federated with and who they have blocked by navigating to their /instances page.

TL;DR: Beehaw does not currently have the resources and/or tools that they feel are necessary to moderate the incoming users from lemmy.world.

kbin.social has access to both beehaw and lemmy.world

Check it out!
