Rules

  1. Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
  2. When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
  3. 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

don't think I'd give you a dollar for that even if it was signed by Kenny loggins.

Weird, www.hexbear.net redirects to chapo.chat while hexbear.net doesn't.

How doesn't that break federation? Or are they starting over?

I just clicked the first link, still the same auction site for me

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't see the auction site at all. Must be DNS things.

mhm for me both links go to the lemmy instance.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

For me, both redirect to chapo.
With different messages on top that aren't friendly to hexbear.
WTF is going on here?

Well I'm impressed that just defederating from them was enough to basically kill the site.

Holy smokes, that’s it after all those years.

What was the problem with Hexbear again?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Most of them are tankies (dumb political ideology) but most people took issue with the fact that they were the most annoying people on Lemmy. Every thread they'd be in would be a collection of the worst takes imaginable and they liked to start arguments with everyone else
