I decided I would actually take a scroll through hexbear to see how their LGBT community was getting on, since that seems to be the largest and the LGBT communities I have access to are sadly lacking in activity.

I checked out their main page and read a few posts. There's just something that irks me about people glorifying Mao who was numerically worse than Hitler.

@Dave@lemmy.nz you made the right choice.

Those are emojis on their side. It will probably be fixed in the next lemmy release.

thats how you can see who to block.

a still image which is used as an emoji, ie data from startrek laughing (or maybe its Lore now that I think about it) indicates hexbear folk

That's not exclusive to them though, there seems to be a lot of genuine star trek fans on the platform.
