They defederated from us. They said abilism and racism or something. I think they didn't like the Winnie the Pooh Xi Jinping. But also I feel like they didn't really like people challenging their beliefs.

Saw a post from !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works that had a pic of hexbears explanation post.

Had a trawl through MoG (which I normally avoid like the plague because, as per post I really don't wish to interact with tankies, even second hand) and can't find it.

Oh well, whatevs, hope you're right

Thanks for that - there's a bug (?I assume?) in Jerboah that doesn't allow zooming pics so that tiny font for ants was unreadable. Well hopefully they don't delay on the implementation

Well either there's a synchronisation delay (plausible) orthey're telling porkies according to

Probably just a delay because when accessing !announcements@hexbear.net I only see very old content.

I can't find us in their blocked list, seems like they might've gone back on that decision.

[–] JohnDClay@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh shucks...

[–] Draconic_NEO@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, that's why I feel like in the case of instances like this they should still be defederated even if they pull the trigger first because they know that they can quietly re-federate later after the whole thing dies down, which seems like what they did.
