Blahaj Lemmy Meta

i've been filtering hexbear's communities from my all feed with uBO^1 because of the tankie vibes, but outside their own communities hexbear people seem to behave themselves reasonably well. considering lemmygrad is defederated i can expect them being defederated as well just because of the politics, but they don't seem too brigade-y to the communities here.

to be fair i've been blocking all the politics and politic-adjacent communities left right and center so perhaps i'm just not seeing the bad parts of hexbear, but shitposting wise they seem alright.

the only real gripe i have with hexbear is that lemmy's handling of emoji in general suck and man do they like their emojis. but that's a software issue more than anything

Ffs I was a long time /r/chapotraphouse user and even tried to use the website after the sub got banned (nothing against it even, just didn't really have enough of my interests to really keep me) But y'all gotta admit this is pretty fucking embarrassing. Like this is a instance meta post on a pretty small, very explicitly pro trans leftist instance, do ANY of you think you would have actually been defederated in the first place? Like genuinely, do you not think you would've just had people like me say "naw they're chill". But instead you put an odd couple hundred comments on this thread when the biggest in the little bit, has about 40? And get this, it's also a thread a defedding from an instance, but actually deserved it, and our admin had already been on the case? Embarrassing.

Big time edit: This was the comment I had originally typed out, and while I still believe quite a bit of it, I'm kinda disgusted by the amount of Russia apologia and pro war sentiment generally. But let me guess, I must be pro nato?

It's exactly the same vibe as the donald and the users are just as bad as the Donald users were.

I'd second this. I've gone through and blocked most of their communities manually but they definitely threw off the vibes. They're not a fun bunch to be around.
