Hey y’all. I’m not a huge fan of defederating other instances but I honestly don’t know that hexbear is adding any value to our discussions. So far everything I have seen is trying to be edgy and gatekeeping with manipulative language. They also seem to enjoy stirring things up for entertainment.
So I pose the question is it worth it to stay federated to a seemingly bad faith instance for the few people who might understand and enjoy the lulz.
I would vote no but I’m open to the discussion.
directly not sure, but im not totally sure they fit with your goals of quality discussion.
I don’t want to get into the habit of blocking everyone without a problem being present. I block pedo sites and the like; however, I’m unsure what trouble hexbear has caused. Once I better understand what they’re doing wrong, I’ll defederate with them. I’m not going to do it blindly.
so its looking like it may just be a small community (but overly active) one on hexbear so I guess for now we let them be and keep our eyes out for abusive behaviour.
