I really hope beehaw is slow to block them, those shitposters are feral

edit: bad news, they say they’re not even going to be federating at first and when they do it will probably just be with us :( I wanted to see the confusion from libs interacting with maniacs on that instance

    I haven’t really seen any of that but then again I’ve only been on that site for a few weeks, they do seem significantly meaner than here

      I remember a post talking about federation with us and one comment (person 1) was saying they should just absorb our community completely. Someone (person 2) responded with basically “yeah they are probably not willing to do that” and gave a few examples pertaining to they difference is drama levels.

      Que persona 2 getting Rabbidly attacked by person 1 in a very long comment chain that was literally the perfect example as to why we would want to stay separate. I didn’t go back to Hexbear for a long while after that.

        I once caught a back and forth like that. It was all about lemmy devs not wanting to implement hexbear’s gender pronouns on avatars. It was a completely pointless discussion where one person was convinced that lemmy is run by bigots.

        One of the things I dislike about hexbear is how US-centric people on there tend to be. Sometimes I feel like I’m on reddit due to the amount of identity politics, pop culture references and hyper-specific memes that only someone from the Empire would really get.
