Edit - Hexbear announced plans to deferedate from us.

==

~~After recent events, it feels to me that sentiment has shifted and more people are asking for defederation of hexbear than previously~~

~~I've been doing my best to try and mend bridges and keep us connected, as it's my hope that we can maintain trans solidarity and work with them, despite the friction, however, ultimately, I feel that this is an issue for the blahaj lemmy community to decide, not the admins alone~~

~~So here's what we're going to do~~

~~We're going to leave things as they are for a week. That will give time for things to calm down whilst we see if we can work together. After a week, I'll put up a vote and get a feel for where the community is at in regards to our continued federation with hexbear. That poll will run for a week. If there is a strong will to defederate (a clear majority), then that's what we will do~~

At this point I don't think we should defederate.

Thank you, Ada, for your hard work.

Thank you moderators, but especially Moss who I witnessed in the trenches dodging bayonets from those jerks.

How will the vote take place? Is there a way to ensure only non-new Blahaj Lemmy accounts participate?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Yes. The answer is SQL and database queries :)

I'm not sure about them now. I've recently had some good interactions with the users, and they do have some good memes. They are also very accepting of lgbtq (which is part of why I joined this instance). On another hand, some of their communities do post questionable stuff. Maybe we could do what lemmy.world did and block some of their communities but not the whole instance? I don't know how feasible that would be though.

That's feasible.

I honestly don't know about them that much but I'm fine with what people decide :)

Mostly I just wanted to add that Lemmy needs a way to limit who can reply to posts because it would solve a lot of problems

Yep, local only posts/communities would be really helpful!
