How bad are these that Hexbear didn't even make the list? Drilling through on the clickable version here makes it clear that the #1, poa.st, has the same basic content as Hexbear, but I'm assuming it's somehow way worse. Just imagine.

hexbear isn't even malicious. hexbear is spicy at best. not nearly as bad as lemmygrad, which is outright repugnant in its overt hostility. hexbear users are at least CAPABLE of communicating, whereas in my experience lemmygrad users pull the animal farm squealer move and defecate on the floor before storming out.

"Naw guys, the tankie platform is fine I promise. Please let ~~us~~ them harass everyone again. ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ"

How did Hexbear ever harass everyone here? Lemmy.world never even federated with them for a second.

You're misunderstanding what I mean. .world's advent marked a paradigm shift where .ml was no longer the "default" lemmy instance. So long as hexbear was federated with the "default" lemmy instance, they were able to inflict their insanity on everyone else. Now .world provides a large part of lemmy insulation against them.

Yeah, every now and then I hop over to an account on another instance, and immediately remember why I tend to hang out on .world…

.world isn’t perfect, but holy hell some of the other instances are just buried in tankie BS.
