Refederation with lemmy.ca discussion (hexbear.net)

Hello users of hexbear, we have started discussions with an admin of lemmy.ca regarding potential refederation. Lemmy.ca had added hexbear to their blocklist about a year ago: https://lemmy.ca/post/3326347

With the recent changes in lemmy features as well as a maturing fediverse the mods/admins of hexbear and lemmy.ca are open to trying again, but before we put lemmy.ca on our allow-list we wanted to open up discussion and voting to the users of hexbear.

This vote will be binding with regard to adding lemmy.ca to our allow-list. In addition, the idea of including sh.itjust.works in this discussion was raised but was voted down by a majority of mods from inclusion.

https://lemmy.ca/c/canada and https://lemmy.ca/c/pcgaming are the instance's top two communities but there are a few other small, niche communities. A community that may be removed from hexbear is the https://lemmy.ca/c/fediverselore so please indicate your opinion on this community if you have one.

As usual please use

dean-smile if you would like lemmy.ca to be added to our allow-list

dean-frown if you would like lemmy.ca to not be added to our allow-list

We will leave this post unlocked for a few days before making the decision, thank you. Users may also use this post for a general discussion on federation including naming instances for federation/defederation or feedback for the hexbear admin/mod team.

honestly idk about refederation with these people. im sure there are nice people there but if some of them are just going to keep complaining about ppb and russia and acting in bad faith then id rather pass

"Are there nice people in KKKlanada" is a complicated question because it hinges on whether nice is the same as kind and whether first nations land is part of Canada or occupied territory in violation of international law.

and whether first nations land is part of Canada or occupied territory in violation of international law.

I've had a lot of fun trolling people IRL here in kkkanada who defend Israel's "self defence" by demanding that Canada be returned to the control of the descendents of those who lived within its modern borders 2000 years ago.

Well, most of the anglo sphere are in nato, nato are fascists, fascisst and communists and like oil and oxygenated flourine compounds. Sort of a circle of life thing.
