A couple of beehaw admin had questions about the status of moderation tooling and the Lemmy Devs were like "not an emphasis"

I kind of feel like that may be a major strategic mistake.

It won't be long before any given instance is overrun with alt right or other disruptive sorts if there aren't good tools to help moderators/admins.

One of beehaw's admins' feature requests is for more granular instance controls such as blocking (defederating) at the community level.

To be fair, I think at the time, Lemmy had major performance issues. I can see how sorting that out is a big priority as well.
