This is the real reason lemmy world defederated
“I say it all the time folks, Hexbear has the most beautiful posters! Makes the other instances look like losers! They come up to me and say “Mr. President, how can we harness their posting power?” and I tell them, you can’t!”
Can someone explain what the hell this instance is and why everyone cares? The whole conversation on both sides is so up its own ass that i have no context.
This is the internet’s largest and best repository of emojis/the vanguard of the vocel revolution

/ Serious head for a second.
Hexbear sprang from the banned r/chapotraphouse Reddit page, which had a reputation for responding to reactionaries trying to debate their views with mockery.
This made it a boogeyman on Reddit, where the overwhelming majority of users are the kinds of people who take umbrage at being told they’re incorrect and/or uninformed on any subject.
Reddit exodus brought those users to Lemmy. Meanwhile, a subset of Hexbear users are nostalgic of what they see as the glory days of r/chapotraphouse and see federation as a chance to do that sort of stuff again.
