They’re mad that you don’t have to write a tabletop character backstory to register at those instances.

:geordi-no: Defederating from Lemmy

:geordi-yes: defenestrating your server

I don’t have a point I just think defenestrate is a neat word

To be fair, it seems like defederating from everyone is their only option at this point. It looks like they want to be SomethingAwful-esque and that just isn’t possible when any redditor can wander in and call you a lib. IDK what the appeal of Beehaw is or why they decided to use Lemmy though.

I can see the appeal if you’re a lib or consider yourself a bit left and you want sort of a safe space / echo chamber. Except for all their substack newsletter tier posts and reminders of that, they’re really not lol

is defederation always mutual or can those sites still see beehaw?

so lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works won’t be able to view or comment in beehaw communities, beehaw users wont be able to view or comment in their communities either, however on a 3rd instance that all 3 federate with, lemmy.world and shi.itjust.works users would be able to see beehaw users’ comments, but beehaw users won’t see theirs

That sounds incredibly confusing. Add another to the pile of reasons I’m skeptical of federation.

It really won’t matter for hexbear at first, it’ll only be federated with lemmygrad

what about instances that beehaw has defederated from pre-emptively, without that instance ever being federated with beehaw, like a certain hex bear dot net? Does that mean they wouldn’t see our posts on, say lemmy.ml if we’d federate with them, but we would see theirs?

This will probably be changed down the line, all it does currently is take you out of the conversation. If we can still reply to beehaw comments on lemmy.ml for example, then we can argue against them but they can’t reply. Lemmy.ml though will still see our arguments.

well it seems much more likely that people will defederate with us instead of the other way round, so this may work out in our favor.

It’s a little strange and frustrating yeah, I have to check other people’s instances quite often if I don’t already recognize it to make sure lemmygrad isn’t blocked

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
