Rules
- Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
- When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
- The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.
The usual instance-wide rules also apply.
Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)
Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.
Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc
(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

Y'all have such a hate hardon for hexbear you can't hear the irony.
And if they did change it to something like tanki.cn, it would be an ironic jab at y'all who already think that anyway.
I have a hard time taking authoritarians seriously, whether they are left wing or right wing.
Don't get me wrong, sinophobia or russophobia for the sake of it is just dumb, but like the other guy said, if we get banned for having a different opinion on those country's dictators than they do... Maybe they should just stay in their safe space by themselves, isolated. Just like Russia and China should be sanctioned and isolated for their imperialist bullshit, and just like America should be for its imperialist bullshit.
Also, if they adopt a .cn tld, they'll lose their domain name again. Not even China wants anything to do with them, hexbear was blocked in China haha.
Hexbear was banned because there is a crypto on https://hexbear.io/ and China banned all crypto. China does not actually care about lemmy so much that they blocked hexbear.
TIL, thank you. Though the reason why China has banned them doesn't lessen the irony here.
Hard not to when I got banned for mentioning China has a market economy.
The standard take on the PRC is that it has a Socialist Market Economy, so I doubt that.
So you got banned for making a bad faith argument rooted in western brainworms?
Yeah that sounds like hexbear.
Really? Not according to the modlog.
Alt Account — Blahaj is not federated with Hexbear.
Though sorry to say I can’t give you the username of that alt since I use it to post personal info I don’t want linked with my main (this account).
