This is an admin post, intended for blahaj lemmy users. Top level posts from members of other instances will be removed.

Edit - Hexbear announced plans to deferedate from us.

After recent events, it feels to me that sentiment has shifted and more people are asking for defederation of hexbear than previously
I’ve been doing my best to try and mend bridges and keep us connected, as it’s my hope that we can maintain trans solidarity and work with them, despite the friction, however, ultimately, I feel that this is an issue for the blahaj lemmy community to decide, not the admins alone
So here’s what we’re going to do
We’re going to leave things as they are for a week. That will give time for things to calm down whilst we see if we can work together. After a week, I’ll put up a vote and get a feel for where the community is at in regards to our continued federation with hexbear. That poll will run for a week. If there is a strong will to defederate (a clear majority), then that’s what we will do
Would you happen to remember who posted it? I’ll look into it. Could have also been a call out of something transphobic, sometimes people word things poorly. We take our purging transphobes very seriously and will hunt them like big game

I’m not an admin on hexbear, no, I just know everyone at this point because I’ve been there since day 1. Send me bad links I’ll get it removed if it’s transphobic
post em to the dunk tank if they’re egregious cause it’s time to issue hunting licenses.

For what it’s worth, you can always report remote posts. Reports get sent to the remote community, which will help them because Hexbear takes transphobia really seriously, but reports also get sent to your local instance admin. It’s a good way to help your admins get a sense for what’s going on on other instances, and then either set of staff can remove it.
