Say “aye” or yes" if you are in favour defederation.
Say “nay” or “no” if you are against defederation.
Only users who have a sh.itjust.works account can vote. Fresh accounts won’t be counted.

Yes.
I’m sensitive to racial issues but the way they go about discussing them devalues them in the same way that I used to devalue them, and reliving my mistakes in every comment section is killing me. Also, everything turns into twitch chat after they arrive.
Aye. If I want to see their content I can read it on a hexbear amount. They just flood my feed with memes and only barely tangentially related comments that are trying to bait people into saying something that they think gives them the high ground. They’re like the arch Linux users of identity politics.
Aye.
I knew that the toxicity of reddit was affecting me, but I didn’t realize just how much until the move to Lemmy back in June. Everything was just so nice, people just happily chatted in comments, most disagreements were talked through or an “agree to disagree” arrangement was reached. Seeing the rude, angry people and the trolls creep back in was so disappointing (though I do realize it’s inevitable. I used to mod forums back in the day.) Having a good chunk of those negative types on one instances is a positive thing, though. With the tools at hand, we can nip it in the bud by just blocking the lot of them.
Something I think people forget in all these many posts about blocking instances is that blocking is not a permanent thing. The mods aren’t hitting the big red button and nuking the instance from existence forever. It can be undone. Times change, people change, forums/subreddits/instances change as they age. If it looks like things may have improved in a blocked instance, the ban can be lifted.
Aye.
They’re obviously here just to troll and brigade. The offer nothing of value, while making this instance more annoying.
Aye.
I was going to vote against it on principle, but I’m just really tired of their shit.
Aye. They’re more or less another Exploding Heads: an echo chamber with a potent and very precise set of opinions which they smear all over any wall they can find.
Aye
As much as it’s funny watching tankies whataboutism and fake outrage, it gets to be too much with their spam taking up most of the oxygen in the room.
Hexbear behaves like the average /b/ /r9k/ /pol/ user
Aye
Check back when we can whitelist individual members who have proven their ability to post in good faith on other instances. Or in ten years to see if Hexbear’s culture isn’t toxic anymore.
Aye
Aye
flan! you’re so silly, you’re from hexbear!
thats ok im pro-defederation
maybe it’ll be a smarter idea to make the post on hexbear?
Don’t worry we’re in the process of defederating from you. I just don’t care which side pulls the trigger first.
Don’t worry we’re in the process of defederating from you.
The only good thing I have ever heard coming from hexbear.
Let’s not use trigger. This isn’t a be-all-end-all situation lol
Removed by mod
Aye
I’m just sitting here on Kbin wondering what the hell is happening, and eating a cookie.
Anyone else want a cookie? They’re peanut butter chocolate chip!
Edit: oh ok I read about whats happening. Wow. What a mess. You guys seem to hate eachother with a passion so I feel like defederating is the only way to keep things from being a constant flame war. Though I will say I definitely lean towards the “hexbear is a little batshit” side of the argument lol.
Yes
yes
Aye. The trolling and brigading needs to stop.
