Now that the old Hexbear fork has been officially abandoned, this community will be used as a space for meta-discussion on the site itself.

db0 and Unruffled have both been banned for reactionary behavior and, in the case of the former, DM harassment.

Due to these irreconcilable differences we thought it only right to allow the community to weigh in on defederating immediately.

According to this person "tankie" is anyone that criticizes the privilege of white westerners in the imperial core who have been privileged and comfortable their entire lives off of the backs of colonized people.

As always, use dean-smile to vote for federation and dean-frown to vote for defederation.

:dean-frown: I only go to their piracy comm for the sidebar link for the list of sites when wanting to find stuff not on my main sites I use. That repo is from reddit anyway so we can just create our own comm and tack it into that or vett the sites ourselves or whatever.

~~Also lol I tried to emoji on Jerboa...~~

Never mind Ol' Hank seems to be working.

Also, we should def make a piracy comms. I donno if I am mod material but I can help with some more amateur stuff. I know enough to not get in trouble. I run my own media server and am behind a VPN like half the time I'm online anyway.

Oh cool. I was sort of winging it since I had to hand-type it. I'm back on desktop and it did work so yay!
