hexbear just decided to federate with shi.itjust.works so before you were only seeing content specifically posted on instances that federate with both, like lemmy.ml, now you’re actually seeing posts made to their comms
I’m a lemm.ee user, not a hexbear user. If you really don’t like seeing hexbear content, stop browsing All and instead use Local. Or, again, just block the communities that keep pissing in your Cheerios.
Local is communities that you are subscribed to, which means you cater your own feed. Subscribe to communities you like and use local to filter out shit you don’t want to see. Otherwise, again, just scroll by or block. It’s really simple
world and beehaw both defederated us, and both tried to claim it was for hate speech, which was so absurd that even their own users who hated us pointed out it was bullshit
This motherfucker thinks he’s less embarrassing than a Redditor. Hilarious. Anyhow, you can say “Thank You” for the Hexbear explaining your own social media platform to you, because, as always, they’ll need to explain the things that go on which you have no idea of their cause. At least this one you might actually accept as true.
just block their comms it’s pretty easy tbh they’ve only got like 50 of them max and of those probably only 20 are super active so it shouldn’t be that hard
It’s only this thread that made me learn comm means community. I always assumed it had to mean something like communications and I was wondering how one would block that.
We were given orders from the Central Committee to post specifically to SPITE and ANNOY you. You are amidst a highly coordinated Special Posting Operation
Did you all decide to post right now? I’m seeing a ton more activity from this instance right now than usual.

Thank you by the way. I appreciate the response and explanation.
So all will be half hexbear from now on? I might need to switch instances to one that’s defederated or stop using all. These are obnoxious.
You can literally block the community. Or use your finger to scroll past it. No one is forcing you to engage with posts. Does it hurt being that dumb?
Your instance has a ton of communities and we can’t blocked instances yet. But I’ll see how many and probably just block the communities.

Sorry, most of the responses were hex bear. I’ll try and block, because local doesn’t have most of the good things.

I heard this new instance called reddit.com is defederated from us, why don’t you join them?
Because their content is trash now, all the good posters are over here. I think .world defeded with you? Or .ml? Anyway I guess that’s a positive now.
not only did .ml not defederate from us, it’s creators agree with us. Enjoy your stay!
Which one was it then? I think .world did and I thought there were one or two other big ones.

I used to be a Redditer, I’m sure you were too.
Did you thank them yet?
OP or the Redditors? I think I did thank OP, but if not I’ll go back and do it.

Thanks to the lemmy libs, I guess!
Yeah I’ll do that. Thanks. If they start new ones though it will be annoying.

That makes so much sense!
