It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Careful comrade that spooky symbol got someone banned by an angery Estonian at lem.ee

If they defederate, guess I'll start using my account based here more (but I like maximum access to the federation with the minimum amount of accounts).

Self-hosting your own instance is a pretty good way to bypass the defederation dramas.

I've given it some thought. My ideal would be to run both mastodon and lemmy instances as subdomains of a much broader personal website/project, but I really would also want to have it be the place that all my friends who aren't in anything federated can go sign up to.

Yup, that's what I do. Fyi, I think hexbear is federating on an Allowlist, so you'll have to request that your instance is added once you have your domain/subdomain setup.

I'm sad they locked that thread. I really wanted to post a hammer and sickle too
