Maybe I'm just living under a rock but I hadn't even heard of, let alone seen, Hexbear prior to this post and had to do a search to see what you were talking about. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

MODERATORS
Why? They think my jokes are funny.
I'm actually pretty confused, because according to hexbear, they're not federated with sh.itjust.works but when I view this post from my sh.itjust account, i see WAAAAAY more comments...
This comment section is a prime example. They brigade every single post about China/Russia or about them, and if you find one there are ten others there as well. If you think lemmygrad is bad, hexbear is way worse.
The Lemm.ee admin talked about it here
TL;DR: This instance wants to federate with everyone as much as possible. You can block hexbear communities if you'd like.
I have like 60 communities blocked by now but it feels nice to make my own choices.
Fuck, prime lemmy is done. It's all downhill from here folks
