found on r-blackwolffeed

On a related note, r-ChapoDogHouse is the last remaining chapo (in the name) sub that I know of. There was a porm themed one that lasted a while, but it got nuked eventually.

      it doesn't just sound like that, we've purged a ton of the old sub's userbase that overlapped with r/stupidpol and had a transphobia problem

          If you don't want to use your pronouns you can just use the gender-neutral they, which is what most people will default to online anyway

          NO THIS IS BIG TRANS TRYING TO SILENCE ME

          Without doing any research, I am 90% confident that the person in the post was banned for transphobia.

            Well, that, and it turned out they were using the Chapo Discord server to organize downvote-brigading against anyone speaking out in favor of making pronoun tags mandatory. Site admins wound up checking users' downvote histories (via the backing database) against certain posts/comments and used that to ID and ban a bunch of them, since we don't track IP addresses. Downvotes were removed shortly afterwards, again because of transphobes harassing trans users.

            CW: Turbo Cringe

            I have my own cringe admission here: when TC69 first started HRT, she made a post about getting high from "E." I, being an absolute brain genius, thought she was bragging (outside of the drugs comm) about doing MDMA, and I may have done a pearl-clutchy downvote because "E" = "estradiol" didn't click in my big genius brain at the time, and the mods/admins were very emphatic at the time that we had minors on the site and not to post various things outside of containment comms because of posts attracting brigades from Reddit.

            So yeah, I downvoted TC69 once on my old account and I still feel horrible about it ussr-cry

        I dunno if these statistics are available, but it would be really neat to see a ranking along like account age and modlog presence weighted by activity. Maybe on a scale of "tightrope over thin ice" to "Mao's lil angels".

        I got banned from blackwolffeed for reporting people who were being concern troll transphobic in comments. About an episode where the hosts were mocking assholes like them too!

        Not that I blame everyone in the subreddit. Lot of decent commenters. But a mod who posts in stupidpol is a mod who posts in stupidpol.

      Wokescold is a term Vaush likes to use so it's safe to assume they're a Vaushite

    Okay you can call bearsite "woke-scoldy" if you're mad we told you off for supporting imperialism or whatever, but cliquey? Fuck that shit.

    As an autistic hexbear, discord servers full of liberal queers are cliquey. Subreddits for dumb interests are cliquey. Hexbear is fucking awesome. Fuck reddit lmao.

    Bring back /r/ShitHexbearSays

    StrappingYoungVlad, where did you go? Look, I'll even make it easy for you:

    October 7th was justified and good, Hamas is good and the legitimate representatives of the Palestinian people and their national liberation struggle from """Israeli""" settler-colonialism, you shouldn't vote for the genocide party (Democrats), anti-cracker racism isn't real but if it was it would be good, unlimited destruction on the first world, political violence is justified, Stalin was 70% good and 30% bad, uhhhh anyone got any others for the screenshot?

    You're either dirt_owls friend or your not, the owl decides who's part of the club. Sadly, dirt_owl said I was stinky and had "farty pants" so I'm not part of the clique.

      I literally do not know how to use those, or even if I can since not a hexbearian (too wokescoldy), but I have learned to love that which I will never understand

        There's a workaround to do it from a federated instance but it's annoying to do. On hexbear it'll just autocomplete emojis after you put a colon and start typing.

          Yeah, I feel like the emoji system within Lemmy could stand to be improved. There isn't a way in the UI to target an instance and then utilize its emoji. The emoji is retrievable from the API at the https://hexbear.net/api/v3/site endpoint under custom_emojis. Each entry has all the data you need to query the emoji. The interface would need someway to reference other instance's emoji.

              "custom_emojis": [
                  {
                      "custom_emoji": {
                          "id": 68,
                          "local_site_id": 1,
                          "shortcode": "two-wolves-1",
                          "image_url": "https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/da7debc4-92f4-4d35-a27a-1dc2676a3477.png",
                          "alt_text": "two-wolves-1",
                          "category": "Abolish the Animal Kingdom",
                          "published": "2023-06-17T21:15:35.303290Z"
                      },
                      "keywords": [
                          {
                              "custom_emoji_id": 68,
                              "keyword": "inside"
                          }
                      ]
                  },
          

          The base Lemmy UI allows for using the : character to search the local instance's emoji like we have on Hexbear.

          Likely, what would need to be added is a way to "federate" or sync the emoji from various instances. I'm sure it would be trivial to write a script that periodically queried a list of instances and pulled their custom_emoji JSON and then import those emojis into your instance. However, what you would really want is a built-in method of allowing two instances to sync their emojis. Federation of emojis is probably not the right way to do it, it would have to be an opt-in process two instances do together, with a way to denoting the origin of the emoji for easy removal.

      The thing nobody tells you about hexbear is that you get an extremely loud mechanical keyboard free with membership.

    Fr though, WHAT FUCKING CLIQUES ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT PLS EXPLAIN

    It's like no one who talks shit about Hexbear has actually been here. The libs with political disagreements I can at least understand but this just baffles me. I was looking at the lemmitor sphere of Lemmy earlier and all this talk of Hexbear being "toxic" or whatever, like just look around and it's obviously complete bullshit. The trans megathread alone is like 30% love and support by content wtf

    I know, I know, this person just wants to say slurs or whatever but still
