Just wanted to share a thread for those who don't regularly venture out of the bear site. Can't cross-post since it's defederated. It's small but has some numbers about community counts, active users, etc and links to more info from https://lemmyverse.net/. Thought it was notable that Hexbear shows up no matter how you sort it.

OP image is community count sorted by active users in the last month.

They openly state that their primarily goals in federation is to be obnoxious trolls, and boy howdy do they put a lot of energy into it. They are first and foremost, just obnoxious. It's like 20% teenagers going through their edgy anti establishment phase, and then the rest are right wing, Russian, and Chinese trolls playing soggy waffle with each other. They pretend to be super serious about LGBT issues but then simp for Hamas, Iran and Russia. And one of their tankie leaders just got caught calling trans issues "western pink washing."

It's just a mess. It's probably a bit overblown, but the community is legitimately annoying if nothing else.

I'm comfortable assuming this is bullshit, but is it a malformed reference to an actual event that happened?

Malformed. I'm pretty sure this was a lemmy.ml mod, not hexbear or lemmygrad.

If its neutonic then they are basically blaming Hexbear for only temp banning him. Assuming they are even aware that happened?
