Fuck ada tbh, has done fuck all to protect trans people and has done a fuckton to protect the kind of people that say this shit. There's even more shit in the thread here: https://lemmy.ml/post/22194896

its a fucking shitshow dear god i dont know how marcie survives the sea of morons

its very strange to see trans servers and sites that are so pathetic at actually defending trans people and educating the cis people around them. Trans spaces are for trans people, and while cis people are allowed, any weird shit from them should get them an immediate ban. Several of the shit talkers are just cis randos giving their hateful opinion.

thank god for people like Kristina and TC_69 to have a competent defense of trans people.

All these people shitting on hexbear made me discover it a few months ago. I was kinda accepting shitty things on other Lemmy instances such as libbed up shit and anti veganism as Im used to it IRL.

Finding hexbear was a godsent. The coomunity always feels very nice. I learn a lot of historical shit and can re experience the feeling of message boards on the late 90s early 2000s.

I still have no clue how to use the emoji pictures everyone's been using though. I copied one once in a post and gave up in all my subsequent ones lmao

Once you learn the emojis you unlock your true posting potential

I still have no clue how to use the emoji pictures

There's a menu button here (at least on desktop) that shows the whole list, grouped by category:

Otherwise, just type a colon and start typing a word after it (with no spaces) to bring up the inline emoji picker, which will try to search on emoji name and/or keyword, e.g., blahaj is :blahaj: but typing :trans will also show it in the list, because it has been tagged with "trans" as a keyword.

The emote previews take so long to load for me. I only ever use the kelly one for puns mostly, but it's not the first result for kelly

These need some sort of caching mechanism. The UI is ass too because you can't see what is loaded/not-loaded, and everything shifts as it loads.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

It's intentional. By forcing people to memorize a bunch of obscure emoji tags we're rewiring their brains into an understanding of the immortal science of Marxism-Leninism

This is called materialism

If you know the name of it you can do :emoji-name: and if you want to see the name of an emoji someone else used you can press the "View Source" button on their comment (looks like a piece of paper) to see it's text code or hover your mouse over it.

For example logo is : logo : (without the spaces)

Alternatively, as you are typing up a comment there is a little smiley face button above the text field you can press for a little emoji selecter ui.

Agreed. Hexbear especially is using trans people primarily as a shield against criticism. You will not find a community there.

Speaking as an admin that had to deal with them.

So, how did we scratch [email protected] ? I've yet to see a salty admin that didn't act like a chauvinist piece of shit before malding over us.

[–] [email protected] 65 points 3 months ago

You will not find a community there.

:agony-shivering: I hate this shit so much. Hexbear is the best community I have ever been a part of.

So they can't take a joke and are so rabidly anticommunist they get scared by cute ushanka emojis, got it.

Damn, the period right after federation went active was so good for posting.

lmao one of those screenshots is nothing but two users discussing how to use emojis on hexbear.

How dare they have emojis with hats grill-broke

[–] [email protected] 26 points 3 months ago

Ayyyy that's me explaining how emojis work! Good to know that being generically helpful is evil and spooky.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 3 months ago

I had no idea they cited my post for this

michael-laugh

I posted shitjustworks into defederation pretty much single-handedly, but I had no idea this instance even existed

I lament that almost all the furry federated social media platforms I know of are run by extremely tech-brained international-community-1international-community-2 turbo-libs doggirl-gloom

I know that I helped get us de-fedded from pawb by making a version of the Grover (of Groverhaus game) Iraq war copypasta in reference to Blahaj Zone. I'm sure there were other incidents, but I remember that my post was cited specifically.

They're calling us human shields 😭

[–] [email protected] 70 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (8 children)

zionism baked into every fiber of their being

also the survey clearly shows we are using the cis people here as human cannon fodder in the posting wars very-smart

[–] [email protected] 43 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I hear that in Soviet Hexbear, they use cis human wave attacks, and only one in every two cis people are even given a weapon!

[–] [email protected] 34 points 3 months ago

whenever a poster falls another takes up their keyboard to keep posting, because they dont have enough keyboards

[–] [email protected] 32 points 3 months ago

Hexbear has no cis users. If you're "cis" and start posting on Hexbear, you either get banned or become trans.

Indistinguishable from IDF genocider rhetoric.

People like this would murder us all given the opportunity, cis or trans, doesn't matter.

[–] [email protected] 45 points 3 months ago

Human shields? We're literally the majority of the site lol

[–] [email protected] 29 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Pawb.social literally doesn't lmao they defederated before we even were federated lmao

most people are on the lemmyverse are liberals and the same is true for trans people.

it's depressing to see them coalesce around the same people that put them in this situation that they're in to begin with and we can't stop them from making that choice.

whose Kristina and TC_69? are they in the post somewhere? (i can't find them)

[–] [email protected] 44 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (3 children)

Oh they're not in the post, Kristina is a top mod here, and TC69 was a previous admin

both had a very large role in making hexbear a fortress for trans users

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 months ago (8 children)

did they comment on that post?

haven't really looked at the ikea fanclub instance since i deleted my account a few months ago and it's always nice to get a reminder of why i try to avoid posting there or even just look at it in general.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 3 months ago (1 children)

it’s always nice to get a reminder of why i try to avoid posting there or even just look at it in general.

When I accidentally wonder into a trans thread on someplace like blahaj or beehaw, I'm always like "wtf is with these comments?" and then check the instance...

Minor technical point: There are many distinct trans experiences
