Suddenly seeing more hexbear posts. Did we re-federate with them? (sh.itjust.works)

If so, was it polled somewhere?

Could you fucking not? If they annoy you, block them. If they don't break any rules and you report them anyways, the only thing you'll achieve is annoying SJW moderators. At that point, you'll get banned before Hexbear gets defederated.

As a moderator in a different community, please DO report all malicious comments posted wherever they are

Moderators with a brain understands the purpose of the "I wasn't born yesterday rule"

I wasn't talking about malicious comments, I was talking about all comments made by users from a specific instance, wether they are malicious or not.

Are you a mod?

I suspect they are coordinating to boost their comments in other communities/instances. Their fringe political views are always highly upvoted, I just find it suspicious. Many places have rules against brigading, so where I suspect it I will report it.

Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right. But I still think it's good to communicate to the mods/admins that a lot of users do not like hexbear because they are disruptive in every community they visit.
