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~~

I don't think it's Hexbear itself that's the issue, I think it's just a few rotten apples that have found their way there causing problems. I was there for a couple weeks and I generally liked it but then it started getting weird and I made a post that apparently someone didn't like and they started harrassing me even after I left and came here.

Like I said though, I think it's just a handful of rotten apples and trolls who have nothing better to do

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!

Until thats done, i think that could be done with an automoderator. E.g. iff a post title begins with [ONLYLOCAL] then trawl the comments every n minutes and remove all comments from nonlocal users. Maybe it would fall apart at scale? But im not sure. It would certainly be more performant as part of the software itself, but i do think its possible with an automod.

Hi everybody! I have joined here from Hexbear. I'm not going to vote in anything. I hope we all stay federated but if not I now have two places I can post at from work.

Lol such garbage and spineless admins that can't do what is right for their own users, instead the onus is dumped on the users to make the choice so the admins don't want to feel responsible. 🤣
