I’m not sure what’s going on over there, but half the time I see a post from there or go into a comment section and it’s just…bad. Like old reddit the_donald bad. Constant trolling, etc. You TS just really bad vibes. I’ve been blocking the communities as they come up, but I’m not sure what else I can do.

    Yeah, Hexbear is old Chapo, they left Reddit for Lemmy years ago. Because honestly, ChapoTrapHouse was a problematic community sometimes.

      We do a little belligerence.

      It'll mostly blow over once we've familiarized properly with the federated experience, sometimes I'll find myself outside local without realizing. also yeah toning down the emotes on other's instances I fully get, that sounds unfortunately disruptive

          that's reserved for people who've shown themselves to be chuds, if it's even remotely possible to have a discussion we'll opt for that first

          If people are replying to you with pig poop balls a lot you're probably saying dumb shit

          It may hearten you to know that internally we are having this discussion as well and I think it's likely to get much less frequent. This time next year you'll know if you see that image that a nazi is getting dunked on by your friendly neighborhood hexbear

      We were able to purge a lot of the dumb stuff out of CTH and made it better. There was a lot of chaser stuff on the old subreddit, I usually avoided comment sections there because itd make me too angry. The new mod team is very good though and obliterates transphobes and chasers on sight
