There's a community on Hexbear called mutualaid that's really nice, but IIRC Lemmy World defederated from Hexbear.
Ok, new to the fediverse, but I now have a question. I'M hosted on Lemmy.World. You're saying we defederated from Hexbear.
So, does that mean I can't go to Hexbear content since we defederated?
And it brings up a second question, how do I know WHY they defederated? Because I don't know anything about Hexbear, other than it's an instance we defederated from.
Because for all I know it could be personal bickering. "Oh those guys rooted for the wrong vampire in twilight......we only support the OTHER vampire!!!"
Meanwhile I'm like "I don't give a shit about any of this....

As you'll see, I've been here a month. Still learning. So thank you for that bit of info. It's very helpful.
10 months ago I'd never heard of a lemmy or a fediverse. 10 months ago I was high as balls on chemo drugs. I remember playing stardew valley, and I think at one point there was a grilled cheese. But the mysterious gyro truck disappeared. I haven't seen it in over a year now.
So I really can't say what I was up to 10 months ago. That might have been about the time I started living at progressive field. Baseball is life!
