I'm posting because originally when I was looking to create a Lemmy account I came across Hexbear. I read the code of conduct and TOS and to me it seemed like a great fit for me. However, after creating an account there, it seems pretty defederated.

Anyway I was curious on the happenings over there, because they have some cute custom emojis over there... but if there's a reason they're so defederated, I might just pretend i never made an account there

EDIT: omg I just found out this instance has cute blob emojis too :3 ablobcatrave

I'm not trans so I never had reason to go down this particular rabbithole, but I remember when I first I joined the platform there was some kind of commotion around Hexbear and nobody wanting to be federated with em because of their supposedly weird tankie politics. I've never seen any tangible evidence of this (insert lack of rabbithole following here), but reading the comments, there seems to be two stories and now I'm really curious what you find out here.

Lemmy instances are all independent and all have their own rules for posting and commenting. You will find that some communities allow things you find offensive, you will find that some communities ban things you find benign, this is decentralization in action.

If you consider yourself to be a leftist, you will find friends on the "tankie instances" (I can't speak to lemmygrad, I've never interacted with them).

There are also instances that have defederated with .world, because they find it to be offensive.

Blahaj is one of the instances I generally find to be enjoyable personally.

Edit: Just wanted to add, I've had comments modded on hexbear and on .world, remember the rules of the instance you're visiting.
