Finally! This place just isn't the same without pics of pigs shitting on their own balls.

I tried to get AI to generate it for me but it's just not the same.

[–] [email protected] 46 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I just blocked the whole instance as soon as the option was implemented. There were few good posts/comunities from it, but overall better to block it whole.

Somehow I can't block it using Voyager, the only instance appearing is test.hexbear.net. Any idea why?

Don't have a problem with what instance you're on as long as you're respectful I'll be respectful back

[–] [email protected] 45 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I totally agree. But that instance is slightly notorious for brigading threads.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago (2 children)

They got like 6 people in here doing just that.

Oh, my sweet summer child.

[–] [email protected] 43 points 2 months ago

It's about time they showed up, during trans day of visibility no less 😌

[–] [email protected] 41 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Move to an instance that defederates then, and move on? I'm not the biggest fan by any mean, but this kind of posts is just calling for some instance slapstick fights in the comments

For a list:

I get what you're saying, but this is mostly a joke.

There is some cool people there.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago (5 children)

When Hexbear sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending other cool people. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing flamewars. They’re bringing spam. They’re brigaders. And some, I assume, are good people.

LPT - you don't have to give any fucks about who or what "hexbear.net" is, instead you can have a life.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children)

If I don't want to have a life, can someone explain this to me? What is hexbear, and what happened?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago (28 children)

It's a Left-unity instance for Marxists and Anarchists. That's really it, some people get really mad at that.

Me; new here thinking "hexbear" is the furry server.... Oh...

Well I was half right

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Never noticed they were gone. Just checked and my instance defederated from them. All is good in the world.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 months ago

Seriously.

Feels good man.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm glad my feed has been pretty drab with them gone

You know that you can block instances yourself? Like you don't have to be forced to see their stuff. I think some of y'all enjoy whinging about shit for the sake of it.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You know that blocking an instance does not block users from that instance?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (2 children)

But it blocks all posts that are posted to communities on on that instance, so it guts 90% of the shit you don't want to see. Just block users when they piss you off.

The constant posting of hatred towards other instances is just as if not more annoying to me than the dumb shit hexbear comes out with.

I'm fine with hex, for the most part. This is a joke, in the jokes about the fediverse community.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

If you block an instance, you can't spend the next sixty posts complaining about the replies.

I would love to get some context on this.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (13 children)

You know how there is a subset of leftists that just make everything worse? Up their own ass, stupid standards/priorities, generally annoying? That's the general opinion of hexbear. I haven't really interacted with the instance much, but that's what i gather from the rumors and the occasional wild hexbear comment, but i might just be primed to notice the bad comments because of the reputation. maybe a bit of a dirtier/less stringently controlled beehaw.

Edit: although as lemmy grows chuds will bitch about them just for not being right wing.
