I am seeing posts from https://hexbear.net/ once again. Anyone know what happened since they lost their domain name? How did they get it back?

I’m glad they’re back, people should be exposed to viewpoints outside their bubble by default. If your instance defeds from them, you are delegating your choice and freedom instead of owning it yourself.

That was a terrible take, I’m sorry.

I didn’t know pictures of pigs shitting on their balls were considered a viewpoint.

I’m on an instance that defeded hex, and I’ve got an alt on an instance that didn’t. Literally nothing lost. The reason loads of instances defeded hex was their habit of brigading. Loads of bad faith arguments, shit talking people…even when they were agreeing with the points being made. Having seen what their contributions to the fed are, I’m glad to have a little less noise. Happy to discuss with people who have different views, but they don’t tend to discuss, they are the equivalent of that one person that talks at you, not with you…

you know, normally I’d agree with your point, but not when the offending parties are actually deliberately disruptive jackasses whenever they show up. Hexbear is insufferable. that’s not a critique of their viewpoint, that’s a critique of their behavior. If you come into the sandbox and kick sand in other kids eyes on the regular, don’t be surprised when nobody wants to play with you. It’s a lesson you, they, and most others should’ve learned before middle school, and it has nothing to do with what political ideology they follow.

Rules

  1. Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
  2. When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
  3. The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.

The usual instance-wide rules also apply.


Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)

Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.

Includes lore like how a instance got it’s name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc

(New) This sub’s intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don’t get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama
