I looked at their modlog and they swapped out almost all admins a few days ago
Extremely suspect
Edit: 27 days ago, they removed 10 admins
They also added all the new ones there, I saw it yesterday, but today, I only see the adding of 2 new admins there. Maybe certain modlog entries expire over time, or when more modlog entries are added (this would explain the whole "ban-trolling" bs, filling up the modlog to hide information)
That's not strange. Hexbear regularly swaps admin accounts out for privacy reasons. It's not a practice that I'm particularly fond of, but it is what it is.
Also, this whole situation is bonkers.
I like to make new accounts every so often as a way of obscuring my online presence. It doesn't completely make it impossible for someone to put the pieces together and dox me, but it makes that job more difficult. I assume this is what the admins are doing, too. So a bunch of admins getting removed and a bunch of new accounts being made admin aren't suspect to me at all.
