I figured since their admin has asked them to stop participating over here it may be worthwhile to get a new discussion going that is primarily blahaj. I'm almost certain they'll still be upvoting so keep that in mind as that may skew things. Worthwhile to check in from instances that have already defederated them. The previous thread definitely left a bad taste in my mouth but what do y'all think?

EDIT: With regards to the post on new federation guidelines here: https://hexbear.net/post/352119

The current top comment is:

Every instance that has talked shit and got dogpiled should be thanking us for breathing some life into their dead and boring ass websites.

I commented before on that thread (before hexbear members got to weigh in) and today I still don't think permanent defederation is warranted.

Hexbear absolutely needs to do better and some of the issue could also be with Lemmy's technical limitations. For example, Hexbear emotes are bugged on other instances and also the fact that hexbear and other instances were able to comment on that thread which muddled the objective of the post. Only blahaj members should have participated and we know that for the better.

Defederation to me means complete erasure of an instance that threatens the integrity of the host. I joined Blahaj to be express my queerness on lemmy and Hexbear isn't taking that away from me. Nor do I believe (imo) there was evidence of that in the 1st thread.

If it's too inconclusive then I'd say not to defederate and instead focus on making sure Lemmy as a whole can be improved for its users.
