Been seeing a lot of people coming in here handwringing about 'red fash' and 'muh authoritarianism.'
Figuring that this will be a common occurrence for a while, so wanted to make a collective thread here. The purpose of this is to just have one spot as so we don't fill up the comm with a ton of posts about it.
Post away, comrades!
Do we really have to federate with these chauvinists
(As in like beehaw and maybr lemmy.world, lemmygrad is cool)
No. Lemmygrad is a must, just because the communities would mesh pretty well. Lemmy.ml is a good idea because it's a leftist-friendly common ground where we can dunk on loser libs with an audience. There are probably other small instances that would be neutral to good to federate with.
Also the leftist Mastodon instance https://toots.matapacos.dog/
It was explicitly spun up as a partner to Hexbear. There's a ton of good mastodon instances to federate with - I'm on urbanists.social.
:sicko-hyper:
Beehaw blocked hexbear preemptively.
We alright already have a plan for that.
