I see a small corner of the lemmyverse...
I see your instance...
...alone...
And a lot of defederations...
Jesus that's a lot of defederations...
They're just misunderstood. Uh, yeah, misunderstood. That's it.
I think this is just a matter of imageboard culture that just can't / won't mesh with general internet civility.
Leave Hexbear users to their spaces. My hands are washed.
Normally I'd be inclined to agree, but the problem is they don't stay in those spaces; they regularly invade other instances en masse, harass its community members and pollute it with pro-Russia & China propaganda and genocide denial, then feign innocence and use their high percentage of LGBTQ+ users as a shield. It's really fucked up, and it's happening in all the major instances in the 'verse. I mean, you're right, they're not gonna mesh and aren't meshing well with other instances, but that's solely because they go to other instances and deliberately start shit. We are leaving them to their spaces; they just aren't reciprocating.
