they probably log all IPs and OP just phrased it weird? doesn't make sense otherwise.

No, the LW admins doxxed a lemmy.world user in the admin chat, claiming they had discovered the alt of Hexbear admin CARCOSA. Answered here

Yeah I mean I was around for that. What you quoted is what I'm saying:

They also log and monitor the IPs and the emails used to sign up on their instance

None of that is unique to hexbear. Anyone visiting the URL in the OP will have their IP logged, there's no way to tell if the traffic originates from someone clicking that link here*. And no way for them to link your IP with the fact that you're a hexbear user unless you're naive enough to sign up for a lemmy world account and post correlating info to a hexbear account.

What is unique to hexbear (sort of, I'm sure they hate the grad too) is the vendetta they hold against us, so even though it's probably a PITA to correlate these things you can be confident that they're petty enough to do that.

Fuck lemmy world and good on ya for posting a lemmy.ml link to the federated thread.

* unless your browser's adding headers to note what site you're clicking that link on, which uh stop using chrome I guess shrug-outta-hecks

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
