Greetings dear lemm.ee folks,

I have noticed an increasing number of lemm.ee users dissatisfied with Hexbearians. Reading through the modlogs on hexbear.net, I have observed truckloads of lemm.ee users being banned on hexbear.net, meaning that they won’t see any Hexbearian’s reply to them since Hexbearians aren’t able to see their comments. Despite this, I have yet to see the complaints from lemm.ee die down. May I politely ask, what is it that makes so many lemm.ee users hate us? And, how can we improve? Thanks!

I humbly request that all parties involved in the comments refrain from using slurs or name-calling to reduce the workload on mods and admins.

    I don’t use social media to expose myself to rabid, radical political trolls, left or right. You’re welcome to, go head and join their instance. But that wasn’t the vibe on Lemmy before hexbear started federating with people.

    It isn’t even about my politics. I can often agree with some of it. But their method is through trolling, dogpiling, and labeling people fascists and racists because they don’t quite 100% agree. Not at all constructive, and in my opinion, healthy for nobody.

      They’re not trying to be healthy or constructive. We are witnessing the birth of the alt-left. They are just as fascist as the alt-right.
