Hexbear has a bit over 20 thousand users, similar to Lemmy. Both Lemmy and Hexbear would benefit from federation. So, what's missing?

Didn't Hexbear run a heavily modified fork of Lemmy? Getting it to federate would be one of a hassle.

At the time Lemmy was not federating and they wanted to add some stuff like stickers and some other cool stuff, so now that federation works it is more complicated.

Wow, Lemmy without federation? That doesn't sound like Lemmy! :)

When are we getting stickers?

I'm going to make my own Lemmy, with blackjack and stickers!
