Hello users of hexbear, we have started discussions with an admin of lemmy.ca regarding potential refederation. Lemmy.ca had added hexbear to their blocklist about a year ago: https://lemmy.ca/post/3326347
With the recent changes in lemmy features as well as a maturing fediverse the mods/admins of hexbear and lemmy.ca are open to trying again, but before we put lemmy.ca on our allow-list we wanted to open up discussion and voting to the users of hexbear.
This vote will be binding with regard to adding lemmy.ca to our allow-list. In addition, the idea of including sh.itjust.works in this discussion was raised but was voted down by a majority of mods from inclusion.
https://lemmy.ca/c/canada and https://lemmy.ca/c/pcgaming are the instance’s top two communities but there are a few other small, niche communities. A community that may be removed from hexbear is the https://lemmy.ca/c/fediverselore so please indicate your opinion on this community if you have one.
As usual please use
if you would like lemmy.ca to be added to our allow-list
if you would like lemmy.ca to not be added to our allow-list
We will leave this post unlocked for a few days before making the decision, thank you. Users may also use this post for a general discussion on federation including naming instances for federation/defederation or feedback for the hexbear admin/mod team.
I don’t know, personally I’m still going to hate on Banderites and if someone were to whine about that I might respond with ppb (or the Hitler particles detected emoji, emojis have come such a long way!).
I also think that most people here just want landlord’s properties expropriated from them, that when someone is being seriously fucked with by their landlord, you can’t expect them not to start joking about guillotines or whatever.
Unless lemmy.ca can compromise here we’re just gonna defed again right?
