Suddenly seeing more hexbear posts. Did we re-federate with them? (sh.itjust.works)

If so, was it polled somewhere?

So I was just looking through literature.cafe a bit, and came across this excellent comment chain by Janvier. It outlines the history and culture of Hexbear, and makes a very solid argument for defederating them.

TL;DR- Don't defederate Hexbear because they're a bunch of genocide-apologist authoritarians. Defederate them because they're annoying, and will burn out your moderators.

Personally I think it’s an extremely toxic community that represents the worst of the internet. They’re extremely set in their ways and provide no meaningful content or discussions on the platform. That’s totally fine for them but they can do whatever they want in their own safe space.

I would prefer them to be defederated mostly because I can’t block an entire instance.

This is in development, fingers crossed it could even come in the next version of lemmy.
