It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Step 1 is to use a different browser than when you were banned. Step 2 is to use a fake email address to activate the account. https://temp-mail.org/en/ I found that when i didnt use an email, i was shadowbanned fast but if you use an email it seems to get around it.
Pretty sure it's a hardware ID ban, if I make a new account and log in on any of my devices I'm instantly banned without posting
It's easy to make a new browser fingerprint. Websites don't have access to your actual hardware ID (and even that can be changed).
They shadowbanned me when I joined, but when I appealed and mentioned that I'm just using a VPN and not ban-evading, they lifted it. I'm one of the lucky ones, I'm sure they've denied appeals of lots of people who were in my situation
