New account but I've been using burner accounts and lurking since the sub got banned. I've been seeing all the standard liberal brainworms again for the first time since reddit-logo and everytime it's an account from another federation. I was tepidly against federation at first but this has been entertaining, like the old days of pigpoop people who wandered into the sub.

I gotta imagine this will only last another week before everyone defederates us, but let's enjoy it for now.

Hello. I was pretty regular user of the original sub before it closed down. I avoided moving to Hexbear because I didn't like the interface.

I've seen several people mention a similar thing about being on the old sub, and are now glad to reconnect with a big chunk of that community. If for no other reason, I think it's awesome that federation has brought about a small kind of reunion of comrades. sicko-wholesome

Yeah I was still in high school back then. Now I've almost graduated college. The pandemic really changed things.
