Lemmy.world, Hexbear...
Also possible on Connect
By removing lemmy.world you remove half of Lemmy's content. Bad idea
And by removing hexbear you remove the other half
someone's still upset at being called a chaser and having their actual trans population migrate
Mate your takes are not hot they are just shit. What does this even mean.
lol username
Also 'willing to engage' lemmy.world defederated preemptively as a last resort
Yes ofcourse we defederated preemptively from Hexbear. You can make an account there no need for you on LW
Hexbear activity seems to have dropped significantly since no one wants to be federated with them. Most of the users now lurk in other instances.
lol the instance that went unfederated for three years needs federation to be active okay
Do you guys ever even hear yourselves? It’s almost impossible to mock you because it would be indistinguishable from the actual nonsense you come up with.
Stick to the echo chamber.
What's nonsense about that comment?
If you ever want a good example of sealioning, here it is!
That's not sealioning.
...where?
Lol you give a good example of what can be avoided by blocking tankie instances. Thanks for the meltdown.
Sanest hexbear user
I seem to notice a lot of discussions about Hexbear. Since my instance preemptively defederated from you, I have some questions. What is the objective/goal of Hexbear? Currently, I kinda feel old 4chan trolling vibes.
Lol my instance has never been defederated from hexbear, which is, I'm guessing, why you signed up for lemm.ee also. I was mainly referring to hexbear activity outside of their own instance - even in instances that hexbear is still federated with, I see fewer hexbear comments than before they were defederated by world and SJW. Instead, I see new users from instances still federated with hexbear (eg lemmy.ml) talking like hexbear users.
More than anything, the thing that annoys me most about hexbear is the double standards. They claim to be open for discussion, but the majority of users are not, they behave childishly. The moderators are often far worse. Many posts openly encourage brigading, rather than just discussing an image of someone's comment they want to criticise, they keep the username in and sometimes even include direct links.
Lemm.ee is a lovely place run by a top admin who really knows his stuff (he introduces new features early but also only when they work, and he was key in helping with some of the major issues that affected other intances, even though his instance was immune to begin with). I'm a little wary of hexbear infiltration but accept it, because that's what having an open and widely federated instance is all about.
Hexbear is nowhere close to half of Lemmy. Even the trio of Hexbear, Lemmygrad, and Lemmy.ml are a small, angry chunk.
The shit half lawl
